I bought a gallon last time it was on sale for this price. Haven't tried it yet tho, anybody tried it? What do you think of it?

I bought another off brand of Menard's discount stuff a month ago for the same price. It was real THIN. Probably be OK at -20.

FVP perhaps?

Yup that's the stuff.

IMO it seems like the cam2 stuff is like baby bear's porridge (just right). I bought a gallon of the Walmart house brand and that was water thin.

The green jug Poulon is good stuff.

 

[ChoppyChoppy]

That's what we use here usually. It's either in a green or black jug, Poulan. It's pretty darn thick, need to thin it out a bit unless it's maybe 80* outside (almost never here!) but at $9 a gallon it's priced right.

 

[Deleted member 83629]

7.98 per gallon of poulan here

 

[Jimbo209]

Can get 15-40 or 20-50 2-3 times a year $10-$12 5L best I can get

After buying all my bar oil at Mills Fleet, I was reading this post and telling my friend about the 4.99 bar oil, one said if I happen to go down to the next town stop at Menards and pick him up five gallons. After a day of splitting wood, I decided to take the wife out for supper. Yep! Drove by Menards, picked up 10 gallons of bar oil for two friends and 5 gal of hyd oil for my splitter. I saw they had a 3oT splitter there for around 900.00 Looks like it was made by Speco bunch. Anyway, The Cam2 is a All Season Oil and well worth the price. Thanks for the heads up..
