    Oil for Stihl 4-mix questions....

    I have been using amsoil saber and red armor at 50:1 this year. I only have one sthil 4 mix and its a older br600 blower that's used for my lawn care business. Few years ago I had to tear into to it to replace leaking crank seals and it was very clean inside. It had had mostly amsoil saber...

    Echo Red Armor 2 Stroke Oil VOA

    2018 Ram 1500 5.7, Delo XLE SB 15W-40 - 10.1k mi

    I'm running this in a 90 5.9 Cummins. Glad to see a used oil analysis on it and to see the Zn & P back up like they showed on the pds. Got 2 boxes of the Delo xsp 15w40 to try next in the 24 and 12 valve Cummins since they show the same levels now.

Anyway, I have been using Mobil or Valvoline motorcycle oils in mine last summer that have showed to have around 1000 ppm zinc and...

    Oil Weight for Kaw FX801V

    Did they ever say how much zinc was in the Kawasaki oil? Dealers here are real big on insisting to use it for the zinc but when ask them how much it has, they have no clue. They just say it has zinc and passenger car oil has none...... but most motor oils I have ever seen has zinc in it. I...

    Oil Weight for Kaw FX801V

    I have used both 10w40 and 15w50 in mine and just stuck with 15w50 since that's what my Briggs takes and to just keep one oil. Kawasaki manual shows 20w50 good to 32 degrees and 15w50 good to around 20 degrees.
