The non ethonal fuel they have around here is called rec gas. They sell it at stations near lake access areas. I don't believe they have a winter blend of rec gas. I add 1oz of seafoam to my mixed fuel and StaBil to the 4 cycle fuel. I use up the straight gas in about 2 months. The mixed gas sits around for a while before I get it all used up. No fuel related problems since the rec gas became available about 4 years ago.
They do offer an injection oil for outboards but this is the stuff i run and sell.
I know that im selling the hell out of it and using it and there is no gloom and doom. Yall probably acted the same when they said to go from 16:1 castor oil to 32:1 2 stroke mix[emoji23][emoji23]. Times change...oil changes...technology advances, keep up
Get what exactly? Ive only been doing this 16 years full time please enlighten me oh great one...
How does that translate to lubrication on case and rod bearings?
So he is just wasting oil. Amsoil guys on here run 100:1. Good for them, I will pass.
Its present, has the normal little accumulation in the crankcase after shutdown. Plenty of lubrication to go around. I was hesitant at first to try it because id been indoctrinated...50:1 or lower was all that was save to run, its all id ever known. But..opti2 works.
We part company here Red. Yes both saws will burn down when to lean but the 40:1 will last a little while longer.
I never said it wouldn't. But it still fails. Running lean puts more heat in the top end and bottom end than any oil can protect from. Adding oil to try and stretch a lean burning saw out isnt right
Opti2 is old technology and only a semi synthetic. Quality of oil does not make up for quantity. Would you run an engine that requires four quarts of oil on one because the oil is high quality? That's exactly what you're doing.
