What mix ratio do you use with what grade fuel with 10% ethonol?
-
I just started using Klotz Techniplate 32:1 and 93 octane.
-
Stihl syn mixed at 40:1 with 100LL and 927 mixed at 32:1 with Maximal...
-
Klotz original techniplate 100% synthetic all year round and sometimes in the 90-100 degree heat days I use the Klotz Super techniplate 80% synthetic - 20% Castor Benoil. 32:1 by my choice, 4oz to a gal 93 octane is just to easy. 4oz 8oz 12oz etc

For repairs in the shop I fill them up with 89 octane, 50:1 w/ Stihl Ultra, and 1 oz of Startron fuel stabilizer.
If the customer uses it only a couple times a year I use 50 Fuel instead, it helps prevent comebacks.
My stock or muffler moded saws, I run 40:1 Klotz Original techniplate w/ 1oz Startron fuel treatment, 93 octane fuel.

32:1 using Baileys.

I run 50:1 Husqvarna XP oil its a full synthetic. I don't cut everyday but when I do cut I cut for the day of heavy use. I am curious as to why your going richer (legit question)? I know that a richer blend will keep things lubed up better and help from seizure but doesn't running it richer then suggested also clog spark arrester screens?

Never seen a deposit from the Klotz 100% or 80/20 at 32:1. Seen a lot come in with screens plugged from that stihl dino crap at 50:1 though.

Old school,32 to one ,whatever mix oil I have on had,Stihl or TSC .

The cleanest cyl to come in my shop was on an old Jon 625. My 80 year old neighbor bought it new. Cut 6 cords of firewood and 2 loads of logs per year. Never saw a drop of mix oil. He only used 30wt motor oil.
When I went to the local sawmill to work in early 80's all their saws got motor oil. Approx 1/2 quart to 2 gallons.

clog spark arrester screens?
What are those?? ;D

Ok so it wouldn't cause me too many issues to drop from 50:1 mix down to say 40:1 with the XP oil I am running now (I have about a gal of the 2 cycle oil left so it will be around a long time)

I've been running Stihl Syn. & Baileys dino 50/50 @ 36 to 1 1oz. Seafoam for 2 years. looks good so far. However, when I run out of the Woodland dino I won't buy anymore will go to all syn @ 40 to 1. Been selling neighbors the Woodland for 2yr. no problems.
