    Echo Red Armor 2 Stroke Oil VOA

    Would there be any anti-wear additives that can't be seen with this VOA? If not, could we conclude this oil mostly relying on higher viscosity to reduce wear? Lastly, the higher viscosity might affect miscibility. Does anyone who using the oil see problems mixing this oil at lower outside temps.?

    I've seen improvement after 1 oz. per gallon of Techron. After 20 miles no MIL and misfire is nearly gone except a slightl amount at throttle tip in and when climbing a hills at about 1500 rpm. Not enough to throw a code.

    That could be why the fuel trims are up on bank 1. It happened after the car sat for several weeks. Is cleaning worth a try ? Though,Looks like a popular replacement part on rock auto (Standard Motor) . I'll check the A/F sensor and maybe an injector cleaner, since it is a pricey fix to...

    Looking to buy Handheld Blower Echo PB-2520 vs PB-255ln or others ?

    Is there much difference in blowing power between the two? The PB-255LN has a 190 mph with about 100 lower cfm with 354 cfm and pb-2520 has 170 mph and 453 cfm. The PB-255LN has a flared tube, which could have more restriction, but does increase the air speed. Do you happen know the outside...

    Anyone foul the plugs after fogging the cylinders ? I am trying to determine if it is worth saving pulling the manifold to replace the plugs before fogging.

    Recommendations for Oil Flush Treatment for Ring Sticking

    I think so too. But now that I think about it more, I should also check the valve stem seal . There is one on the intake , but not on the exhaust. There is no visible smoke with a load, steady rpm, or cold start which you usually get with bad rings. I do see it when throttling down no load...

    Recommendations for Oil Flush Treatment for Ring Sticking

    I am running straight 30 wt., not sure if I would see much difference with 40 wt - I could try it. This engine it pressure fed lubrication, not splash. The rings could be worn. I haven't done a wet and dry compression test, but my thought is that it probably won't tell if the rings are worn...
