Well, as I sit here right now considering my options I'll probably get the 390, and keep/repair the 365. I may put it in a box for today since I'll have a saw to use for right now. I've seen people with multiple saws and sometimes thought "they need to get their mess cleaned up" and then here I am starting a collection!?! ;-o

I'll begin using a thicker mix today -- probably 32:1 regardless of brand or advertising claims. I see the Redline is also recommended for 100:1 "if the engine is properly designed for reduced oil mixtures" which this one is probably NOT -- and get rid of the ethanol.

Sounds like a good plan.  You'll need to retune your equipment when switching from 100/1 to 32/1.  The engines will run LEANER (so you'll have to richen them up) as there's less gasoline in a given volume of mix (rich/lean has to do with the gasoline/oxygen ratio).  Any quality synthetic oil will be just fine.  Most important thing is a proper tune and clean, quality fuel.
