I had been using the Poulan Synthetic oil from Walmart for quite awhile thinking I was saving money over the "bigger brand name" oil. Then, the local Walmart stopped stocking it. I found it at another location priced at $2.99 per 3.2 oz bottle.
I learned that even the big box stores priced the Echo Power blend or Husqvarna LS at $2.99 per 2.6 oz.
That's when I learned my local Husky / Stihl dealer sells the Stihl Ultra synthetic for $12.99 a 6 pack, which works out to $2.17, so I bought a pack. Pretty good price for a full synthetic I thought.
Yesterday I stopped in a small engine shop close to my house that carries Dolmar saws. They carry the Dolmar Fully Synthetic mix for $1.50 for 2.6oz bottle, which works out to $9.00 a 6 pack. The Dolmar, like the Husky and Echo mix meets or exceeds the FD ratings & ISO EGD.
My question is does anyone have any experience with or use this mix regularly and have any opinions about it. I don't care what the brand name is on the bottle, just if it's a good cheap oil, or if its just a cheap oil.
Just looking for information is all...
