But in case anyone is curious, Red Armor, Dominator, Honda HP2, Valvoline Universal, and Castrol Go are the 5 that made it through 9 hours at 300:1.
Opti 2 made it as well but the rod bearing was shot.

Ultra lasted a few minutes at 200:1. Stens full synthetic FD is the current loser and made it 2 minutes at 200:1
 
I don’t want to confuse you I don’t recommend it, but because we’re on the topic of oils. I tried 100:1 saber for the first time yesterday in an old leaf blower I was given as it got smashed up in a wreck. There was still an oil film and small puddle of oil in the crank case. Even the mixed colour is what I’d expect from a 50:1 oil lol.

Ignore the dirt that fell in on the transfers…
