There is an Amsoil thread going on down the hall on the right. :help:
I use the Ultra in my saws and trimmer with 93 octane.

yep.. he had 10 whole posts before this one. You'd think he'd have figured it out by by now!:msp_mad:
I've been using it for years. Won't use anything else in my BR600.

Yes its good oil, but not worth the price IMO, here is equal and better oil out there for less $$ but to each there own and if you want to use it you'll be happy.

I use it in everything 50:1. Love the smell too first thing in the morning it'll wake you up whoooo. I can justify the cost because a gallon lasts about a month. It also cleans up old engines. 50 cents more than then hp regular ain't bad.

I know it ain't right to answer a question with another question, but...
Are you having problems with the regular HP? And if'n it ain't broke, why are you trying to fix it?
Why? Seriously... Why is it worth it? What, and how much, do I gain for the extra buck?
Hey, I'm not trying to start a wizzin' contest, but I see a lot of praises on synthetic two-cycle oils and most of those praises are just re-quotes of advertizing lingo. Again, and seriously, has anyone run two identical saws side-by-side, one running regular HP, the other running Ultra... until one blew up first? Has anyone compared the same saw running HP vs. Ultra on a dynamometer?
To just say, "I've been running Ultra for x-amount of years and had no problems" ain't any sort of proof. I've never used a synthetic in anything, most of my equipment is something over twenty years old (some over 40 years old) and I've never had any problems either.
Seriously, I'd just like something tangible on why it's worth it? What specifically do I gain?

HP ultra does burn cleaner than the regular Stihl oil. My fan shroud on the fs 250 can attest to that.
