I can't believe this, I thought I was the only one using Legend ZX2-sr . I started using it over ten years ago and haven't used anything else since.Legend ZX-2sr is the best 2-stroke oil I’ve used. It tested better than anything on the market, and I can get it for about $0.37 an ounce (buying a 5 gallon pail). I’ve heard if you call them direct, you can sometimes negotiate a better price. That kind of volume is fine for a landscape company, but probably not the best for a homeowner (unless you have a bunch of toys)! I like the fact that it’s pink, so when it mixes with the fuel, you can see any trash in a clear tank (vs. the traditional blue dyes commonly used). My landscape buddies love it. (I don’t sell the stuff FYI).
It would be nice if they listed some specs like the Flashpoint.Legend ZX-2sr is the best 2-stroke oil I’ve used.

See if you can find a local source for E-0 with this website:You guys are lucky to be able to source E0 gasoline. Hard to come by where I am at (MA, US), for the time being I have been paying a king's ransom for engineered fuel 1:50 ($5 per quart) until I figure out where to get E0, or how to make my own. I think if you are mixing your own, using a low ash 2T oil is important. I would also lean towards higher octane (92-93). Add sta-bil definitely. Esp. if it is gas station gasoline. It has ~30% aromatics, which
tend to produce sediment.
I am surprised that some of you deviate from the manufacturer's recommendation. Some equipment calls for 40:1, my echo chainsaw asks for 50:1. I thought there was an actual reason for that. No?
Are you guys saying it is OK/better to deviate and use a higher oil
content mix?
I can't find any higher octane than 90 in e0. Doesn't seem like it's worth the hassle for as little as I run 2 stroke ope.You guys are lucky to be able to source E0 gasoline.

Curious to know what is this “Super S” oil?Just put some Super S 40 :1 Premix in my chainsaw. Started right up and ran flawless.

Super S does make Motor Oil . But I used there 2 cycle Engineered Fuel in a quart can that comes pre-mixed at 40:1. I got it Menards. It's like Trufuel.Curious to know what is this “Super S” oil?
