I suspect what it's going to come dome to for me is the question of if K2 is worth almost double the price and the hassle of mail ordering vs Yam 2R which I can buy local. The only other high end oil available local is Motul 800 and I really don't have any interest in running it.

Ever use this?

What changed your mind with the 800? This is an older statement you posted on an AS topic named (Two types of Stihl 2-stroke oil?). " K2 and Motul 800 are two of the absolute best oils you could use. You pay for it though as they tend to be priced considerably higher than Mx2t".

I can already tell you that it won't be worth the PIA factor or money and you'll probably switch back to what you get locally.
Just a guess... Even if it were a little better.. How much better does a person really need in a freaking chainsaw??

The chainsaws are the least of my concerns. I have a two stroke street bike and a mx bike that are much more important. Without those two bikes I would run Citgo Aircooled semi syn at 32:1 and not lose sleep

My mind hasn't changed. 800T was and is a fine oil, when used right. If I was like Dave and milling alot I would use it no doubt.
 
O

Lots of mettalics in it and its end point is such that it's hard to get complete combustion with the loads I am dealing with. It's great oil when used in the right applications.
With that said i assume you mean you will get spooge. Looking at Ron660's pictures of motul its does appear to burn very clean. Mettalics are of concern you feel?
 
Thought I'd come in here and throw this up. Sold my 346 and the buyer wanted piston pics. Been running 40:1 Lucas for 25 tanks before this. As you can see she is wet and it is not tuned rich at all. piston also has a gooey film on it like i stated earlier in the thread. Perfect lean to scream tune LOL I think it's safe to take anything to do with oil with a grain of salt on the internets although that doesn't mean we can't beat the hell out of the topic LOL :)

Looks pretty rich to me though with just those pics it's hard to tell.

the point of the pic is that lucas leaves an oil film behind and i assure you it's not rich LOL there are many that can't properly tune a saw because of worry of things going boom. i'm not one of those people. i tune them lean so they scream. makes a saw more usable IMO. i mean not to lean by any means but even the most tune savy saw hacks wouldn't be able to hear it 4 stroke.
