So what's the current Two stroke oil favorite for

[clemsonfor]

I'm not trying to start an oil war or super long post but I know there is a good chance I do.

I need to buy some more and want to know what folks are useing. Several years back I used some bel rat, the. Uses a few quarts of amsoil, then got some Lucas but quit when someone told me it left their says dryer and less oily residue than other worse oils so I quit useing it. I got a qt of Raiseman semi syn that I just used up last I mixed. I am going to have to use the last of the Lucas that I have untill I buy something else and was wondering what folks are useing these days.

I use husky 2t oil in everything that’s 2t. I stick with the manufacturers oil.

On the dirtbikes it’s maxima super synthetic blend for nickasil cylinders and maxima 927 for castiron sleeves, castor synthetic blend.

Before those I posted I had used we real quarts of the husky xp plus or whatever you could buy in black bottle with blue label from Lowe's. It's semi synthetic. But I had several well known guys that were and may still be here and also on another forum we all probably know tell me that stuff was terrible and coked up saws worse than anything they have used. I quit it after that. Don't want to deal with that even though I didn't think I had a problem with it up till that point .

I run 38:1 mix, I think 50:1 is too oil lean.

I run 32:1. As do the folks who I was talking about.

Oh good, we were due for another oil thread.

I recently found out Yamalube has an air cooled oil. If I needed oil, I'd probably give that a shot.

Which one, dominator or sabre?

Sabre.

 

[Bango Skank]

Stihl synthetic in the grey bottle.
I buy 6 packs of the 1 gallon for 50:1 makeup, but use .8 gallons of ethanol free. Should get me somewhere around 40:1 I think.

Amsoil dominator fan here. But lately I have switched to the VP pre mixed 40:1. The stuff stores forever and doesn't destroy carbs and fuel lines etc. It's worth the extra money to me. Set it and forget it.

Schaeffer's 7000 boat oil 40/1

At least 8 gallons through this 372
The tree monkey turned me on to this 4 year's ago.

I have been using Amsoil sabre pro in all my two cycle and four mix equipment. There are ratings now ISOLGED and jaso??? should say in a modern owners manual. In honesty I used Gulf and Sunoco in quarts from gas stations for years with no problems. No high revs with no load I heard years ago seems to work.

Schaeffer's 7000 boat oil

That isn't showing up at the Schaffer's website. 4 cycle marine diesel seems the closest to boat. I found bar and chain oil.

I gave my son a new poulan wild thing about 20 years ago. When he bought a house. He had brush piled up the size of a small three bedroom ranch house.
He used his left over super maxima 34:1 dirtbike mix. I thought this saw wouldn’t last, today it still runs. It makes me think about what’s more important the brand of oil or the mix ratio?

 

[Jonny Quest]

Klotz R-50.
40:1 mix ratio.

 

[SawTrash]

Husky LS+ 50:1 Wouldn't have a clue whether it's better or worse as a lubricant but by trial and error found it makes my 2 stroke motors' exhaust smell least objectionable.

Tuning for whatever you're running sure is more important.
