Ya gotta love a good oil thread.

[Mastermind]

I use 87 non-ethanol gas mixed with 4oz of Belray H1R and 2oz of 108 Octane Boost per gallon.

I use the 87 because I figure it's fresher than the 91 that no one buys.

The octane boost came about because I build saws with well over 200psi pretty regularly. One saw in particular (Rolltide's 395XP) wanted to run on after a long cut when shut off. The octane boost stopped that issue.

The 32:1 ratio is because 4oz per gallon is simple......real simple. That and the extra oil makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I started using H1R after someone posted a link to a RC site oil comparison (you think us chainsaw heads are freaky check out those guys).

So.....what do you use and why?

 

[stihlavarna]

Shell 93 octane cause it's listed as containing no ethanol, Baileys woodland synthetic at 40:1 and that's on all my outdoor power equipment.

 

[DSS]

An oil thread? What the hell is wrong with you? Overcome by fumes?

87 octane no ethanol, shindaiwa one oil at 40:1 with 4 oz of seafoam. See, nobody cares.

[Fire8]

Mastermind I got a 365xt mastermind that I should be getting what mix

[deye223]

Here we go again :deadhorse:

it's in me sig .... why coz most run 40:1 synthetic in ported saws
and it burns cleen and no stinging eyes


:surrender:

 

[cpr]

32:1 100VLL & R50.

Because.

 

[dl5205]

With a 379ml bottle, you can add to 3.2 gal of gas for 32:1, 4.0 gal of gas for 40:1, 4.3 gal of gas for 43:1, 5.0 gal of gas for 50:1, etc.

 

[struggle]

100LL A/V 45:1 Stihl HP with Amsoil Saber next at 45:1

 

[toolfreak]

91 octane 50:1 in everything

 

[fatboymoe]

Tru-Fuel 40 to 1 in all my saws and Tru-Fuel 50 to 1 in all the other 2T equipment. I can't get ethanol free fuel without going to Trick Fuel in 5 gal. cans. Not the cheapest way to go, but I sleep better at night!

 

[redoakneck]

Motul 800 2t because it smells like bananas and I am trying to catch a sasquatch!!!! Mixed w/ e-free 90+ at 40 to one.

 

[3000 FPS]

True Fuel 40-1 because I like the cans.

 

[shadow745]

I'm a firm believer in Opti-2 and mix it with 89 octane at 80:1 for all 2-strokes I own. Been using it for about 12 years now. Burns rather clean/smokeless, provides great component protection and never have had any plug fouling, clogged spark arrestors, etc.

 

[naturelover]

Moto-mix for the 441 and fs-250, Tru-fuel at 40-1 for everything else except for the el-cheapo bolens. It gets some off brand mix at 40-1 with months old ethanol fuel and still starts and runs fine.

 

[cowroy]

Oh no you didn't moobs! :bang: If I was a mod you would be takin a trip I know our not bored so what gives.

 

[jropo]

I'd still would like to find a good AFFORDABLE oil that I can run in everything.

We have burnt 30 gallons of pre-mix in a good weekend before.

Regular gas w/ Valvoline @ 40:1 for the Homeowner leaf blower (for blowing snow off the wood piles), old Toro 2T snowblower, home owner chainsaws.

Mid-grade w/ Husky oil @ 40-50:1 for the Husky's

Regular w/ Yammalube @ 32-40:1 for 4-6 snowmobiles.

I hate carbon build up, but I can't afford to burn anything down.

Man is it that slow in here! :msp_biggrin:
