Thread: Cut vs split firewood

yeah 50-1 still gums up our plugs with the light use we do(loads of idleing) even with the better oils

25-1 is just for running things in and when you enjoy the extra smoke

Yeah na. 25:1 has its place with standard mineral oil 2 stroke oil and big saws operating alaskan mills.

As an aside I have found fully synthetic 2 stroke oil starting to be hard to get, and has become insanely expensive. Motul is now nudging $50/L

I was onto a winner with Total's fully synthetic 2 stroke oil @ $18/L back in 2020. I should have bought 50L of the stuff

a new stihl will fail at 25;1 I KNOW this as double mixed some and it clogged up the filters,$60 later she sorted,funny thing my older stihl simply ate the same fuel mix no worries....
