Anyone know what color the Schaefer 2 cycle oil is? Blue, red, orange?? Thinking about ordering a quart bottle from summit racing to try it out, in my chainsaw 40.1 mix. Never tried the brand, or seen in any stores, but it gets solid reviews so it must be high quality product.

I normally mix Amsoil Sabre for all my small engine equipment. But I had one bottle of Husky and one bottle of Redmax, from when you purchase a piece of equipment they give you a free bottle of oil, so I had those two bottle of oil and I thought why not go ahead and use them up, so I mixed up 2...

Recently noticed a color change in a new bottle of Husqvarna XP 2 cycle oil. It's now a dark blue color instead of the greenish color . I was mixing up a 2 gallon can, I had one 2.6 oz bottle of Husqvarna & another Redmax brand. Since Husqvarna owns Redmax, both oils are made in Charlotte...

Another vote for Saber at 50.1.

Ive got both Makita 18V and the newer XGT 40V. If I were starting from scratch Id go XGT 40V tools only. To me the XGT = Xtra Grunt. But I also really like the Bosch 18V tools. Good quality stuff they make as well.

Used to use Autogeek.net. It's not the same anymore. Im thinking about placing an order with Poorboys world, for some polish, detailing spray, clay lube, ...........LOL and maybe a bottle of their "birdshit remover". Have never tried Poorboys, hard to find online other than their website.

Does Carquest make a filter same size as the 84712 but just in a longer version? This filter is for my 2025 Outback, the stock filter that came on the car is about 1/2" longer than the Carquest I bought. I think the Carquest is a great filter, but just wish it was as long as the factory filter.

one more dumb question and Ill quit, in regards to the shorter filters, are they okay with a 5K mile interval? or would it be a stupid idea to change the (short filter) only at 2500 miles with a new filter. Or am I just overthinking this whole tall vs short filter thing and just use one and...

just out of curiosity, would a 15208AA100 work on the 2.5 engine? its quite a bit shorter in lenght than the 20A or 22A filters. I have 3 of them, if they are not applicable or recommended then Ill just offer them up to someone here for free.

Local Advance auto had a Subaru Indonesia filter 20A. it was a little expensive at $16 but I bought it anyway, my first 2 oil changes are free at the subaru dealership, 5K & 10K miles, but I think I will do one at 1000 miles to get the break in oil out, and then get my 5k mile oil change at...

As a novice weekend guy, who just joined the site today, I can't see any difference. Just want a quality replacement filter for my new Outback. I can buy K&N and CarQuest locally. I only run Amsoil in my vehicles, so I think with good oil and 5K intervals most off the shelf filters should be...

Would a K&N HP 1008 be a good choice for my 2025 Onyx OB with the 2.5 non turbo engine?
