Really? Your talking about 1/2 oz oil per gallon of gas between the two. I doubt it will make THAT much of a difference.
Why 50:1 is the Best Ratio

I believe it was just meant as a litle jocularity. 
A little humor is needed with an oil thread.

Depends upon what saw and what oil you are running @ 50:1

Pretty sure you are asking if Gypo wants his finger pulled.
Procede with caution, could be burrito night.

It depends upon how dirty your filtre is. Dirty filters like 100:1, otherwise there can be a carbon issue.

you can take my 40:1 from me when you pry it from my cold dead fingers.

Maybe you'd be better off prying that carbon clogged spark arrestor out of the muffler. LolOMG another oil thread!!!!!

Motul 800 offroad at 50:1 for me because ME likes it.
50:1 pluses
1. its recommended
2. its more economical
3. its better for your lungs
4. most other things will kill your saw long before 50:1 will.

I never had a problem with 50:1 for many years in stuff that called for it. I had one seizure in a sled that was ran in too warm conditions that was free air cooled. I always followed what the oem called for. If i had something that was old or was planning on abusing it id run more oil. Now im thinking maybe some items really dont need the extra oil, especially with the saber. It runs clean but in stock saws its way overkill to use so much oil.

Does anyone actually run 50:1 in older saws like an 056? If I remember correctly the recommended ratio was 16 or 32:1. Or is it just on newer saws?

A plug for Motul 800.
I was running Royal Purple @ 40:1 with residue on a new piston after 2-3 tanks in a ported saw. Could see the wash from the transfers nicely. Definite carbon build on the crown.
Motul 800 at same ratio and the piston is like the minute I installed it. No carbon at all.
It's strange that two different synthetics could make that much of a difference, but it did for me.
