I like oil threads. Do you like oil threads, Dennis?

All this stuff has gotten out of hand. I wouldnt believe any oils claim until Ive seen 2 oils compared side by side in equipment to failure. Anything else is an opinion and a waste of time

I've said this toward the beginning of the thread but no one is willing to spend any $ to find out. All talk and no action spells ***** to me. They'd rather blather on and sound like they know something they actually don't. It's all copied from the Internet and we know how reliable that is lol

I don't think I buy that at all.

It's a know fact, do to the low molecular weight. A huge advantage ester oils have over other synthetic or mineral oils. I think you're just in love with R2.[emoji6]

wind........

no exposure limits have been established. imagine that. 8-10 hours a day with exhaust exit 2 feet away.

good news is there is no reproductive harm!

do hope somebody out there may read the safety data sheet about wearing self contained breathing apparatus when extinguishing fires or chronic pneumonia after absorption/ingestion though.

PIB is a term that refers to a variety of products, as do esters.
PIB is not what makes Styrofoam cups as that's poly styrene.
PIB is an excellant lubricant when the right types and viscosity product is used.
Yamalube has two cycle lubes figured out and uses PIB.

Yamalube is just a name they put on someone else's product, and seeing as it's now made by Spectrum, it's likely the same blend as Husqvarna's oil. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Yes, because fronting the money for a meaningful test is great investment...

Yamalube is a blend formulated for yamaha.. it's not the same as anyone's product and wasn't when citgo and before that chevron blended it.

Bah! Technical papers do not mean anything! They are written by marketing and advertising people and are just hype! No, I do not actually believe this, but many so called "experts" on this site do.

As for this site, it has gone to shyte in many ways from Sunday.

They certainly do mean something, if one knows how to read them.

Certainly no worse than gasoline fumes or other oil fumes. It's no stretch that breathing exhaust isn't great for you.

I'm really not..I'm using an ester oil right now and have laid up quit a stock of it..

Yah, I liken your post to the fact that people on this site run saws with LL Avgas which has TEL in it. Suck down those lead aerosol fumes! Yum yum!

I do use low smoke oils in my saws. They have polybutene/PB and/or polyisobutene/PIB in them which is broken down into isobutenes which burn off during combustion. I keep that stuff off my hands when mixing it with gas using vinyl gloves.

Yes, read my fine print...

 

[mdavlee]

Yes.

I burned some of it earlier in one saw and weedeater.

In principal at least, gasoline simply burns to form CO2 and water.

 

[bwalker]

I was agreeing with you.

Its good stuff, but I am not convinced it is any better than 2R and it cost almost twice as much.

Then we are in VIOLENT agreement here!

Ohl threads, gott'a love 'em.
