Thanks Richard. I’m a 10 year Amsoil Dealer with a lot of customers in the tree cutting and golf course industry that this video you made will help educate them more! I have one tree cutting client using the Saber at a 90:1 and he’s loving it.
So after watching several of your videos on Ultra oil and this one with Amsoil Saber I decided to switch to the Amsoil, you proved it right here. I run Amsoil in my Ford diesel, my tractor, my skid steer as well as my Ducati 1098 and F4 MV Agusta so why not my chain saws? I like everything I have read about Amsoil and my experience with it has been nothing but good. Oil is cheaper than metal.
Also, after seeing Aaron A Lynch's farmertec 372xp teardown with 3 years of maxima castor 927 use at 32:1 I've been playing with it in a few of my saws😅 man that smell brings back memories!🤪
I’ve been running bel-ray h1-r at 40:1 happy with the results so far. Also run the vp mix oil same ratio. Only ran a few tanks of the Stihl oil. I’ll never go back.
Been running saber in a lot of things. One that sticks out I’ve been running it at 80:1 in a 70cc quad with 25 gallons ran though and not one issue. Also been running same ratio in a 2016 562xp still running great. They claim 100:1 I know it scares people but I’m sure it’ll run things just fine.
@Richard Flagg Nice, that's what I see too from Stihl oil. I also see something very similar with husky. I've had really good luck with Shell Advance Snow Ultra 2, it's a full synthetic (snowmobile oil) but with newer sleds their exhaust valves also can't handle carbon build-up, so what ever detergents they use, it burns clean. Always a good coat of oil on mine when I pull them apart for porting etc.
A cool test for that 661 would be to run a good solid FD rated oil at 32:1 for a few gallons and see if it breaks up and cleans that piston crown. I run the older Red Armor at about 36:1. plenty of oil in lower case. A good tune on the rich side keeps them running clean.
@@richardflagg3084 Friend 372 xp oe still reaches 14 thousand revolutions max, how do I warm up why is this happening ??? Will +500 revolutions damage the saw? If the H nozzles are retracted, there are also 14,000 orots .........
I'm doing g a 044 oiler mod this morning and then I'll hopefully cut some 36" or little bigger oak trunk. Tht would be a great content for ur channel. Stihl oiler mod step by step. I may do it on the 460 if I get this one done right.
I’ll have to make a video pulling my jug off my 661 had it for a few years pulling a 36” bar. I’ve only ran vp premix at 50:1 the last time I pulled it off I was surprised how clean and how much oil was left over.
I bought a bunch of this ultra when I bought a new saw because they double the warranty. Not knowing any better I was running it! Anyway I decided to run this Stihl Ultra in a cheap blower that I don’t care about. Anyway I had some 40-1 Stihl mix, at (least I was smart enough to not mix 50-1) and a gallon of some quicksilver PWC oil. I ended up adding a ton of that oil to the mix I didn’t measure just dumped a few oz’s into the blowers tank before filling with the Stihl mix. I’d estimate probably a 8 to 1 mix. After running about 10 tanks of fuel through this blower (it doesn’t smoke at all if you can believe that) I pulled the plug and to my horror it was clean like no oil whatsoever looked like a 4 stroke plug! This got me curious so I pulled the crankcase cover off and there was a ton of oil in it (I’d say 2 or 3 tablespoons in a 30cc blower). The piston is beautiful not a scratch soaked in oil yet no carbon. The combustion chamber only has light carbon coating and the exhaust is bone dry and clean other than a light coating of ash. Don’t know what to make of this I wouldn’t try it in a expensive saw in a million years. The blower never idles except for 30 seconds before shutdown and literally runs full throttle continuously for an hour or so then gets refilled and repeated. I can only assume the pwc oil is not doing anything for the top end since it’s for water cooled jet skis and the Stihl oil is lubing the top end? I’m serious it doesn’t smoke at all and we’re talking a 40-1 Stihl mix then mixed probably 8-1 with quicksilver PWC oil.
Wow that saber is impressive.. I just switched over all my saws, weedeaters, etc to saber 50:1. I used to use my 40:1 klotz super techniplate left over from the 4 wheelers but I was getting a lot of carbon on top of the piston. You’ve mentioned you run schaffers, I’d be curious to see how that stuff performs.
I've heard about that blend of Klotz, but never had any first hand experience with it. I'd put my boat oil up against anything, but it's my saw and my choice. I've been asked a bunch to test some Motul 800.
I ran a whole gallon of my old Mercury outboard oil mixed at about 40:1 in my old Stihl 029. Never ever had a problem. Wasn't until many years later after signing up on the forums did I hear that it was supposedly bad for outdoor power equipment. Lol
@@richevy5224 I know you do. That's where I got my wisdom from. Julian did a video years ago and it's hard to deny the obvious. Yes it's for boats, but it does an exceptional job as a chainsaw lubricant. Just my .02
Interesting. I run HP ultra with 95 octane fuel here in Australia and my pistons are all clean as and plenty of oil in the cranks. I run 38-40:1 and I run stuff hard and never had these issues? Just interesting. Maybe it's a fuel and how it's used thing??
All my saws look exactly the same, black carbon!….. I’ve just started using Motorex 2T. This is the only one I could find in a motorcycle shop. Now my saws look wet after one tank. I’m sending away for some Amsoil, very soon.
If that's an HD2 filter (I don't think it is), like one on my 461, it filters particles larger than 15 micron or so. I filled it with water with my finger over the screw hole. NO water comes through the filter, perhaps due to surface tension in the filter fabric. Sprayed with purple cleaner, let it sit, blast the outside and inside (separately) with water and it looks like new. I don't see how any larger, oily or gritty material can get past this filter, unless it's not sealing properly with the cover on.
I realize that you like the Husky filter but the Stihl probably has twice the surface area with the tight pleats. Would love to see an air flow test. Vacuum cleaner, plastic tube, solid ball of some sort could make a nice test fixture ... in your spare time :-) Or maybe mine.
I don't argue about the amount of filter media, it would likely flow more when clean. Like I mentioned, the pleats are sooo tight they catch and hold debris. My concern is that in commercial work, flow would suffer after a full day or two of cutting. Then not be able to do much more than knock it out..
Dirt bike rider chiming in here. My KTM 300 went 550 hrs before showing signs of the lower-end needing rebuild using Amsoil Saber. I won many races on the crank before the 550 hr rebuild. My buddy with the same bike using off the shelf oil at the moto shop only went 250 hrs and his bike almost blew up. Sloppy crank! Never raced once, trail riding only. Amsoil Saber makes a huge difference no doubt.
Those results look right on with what I've seen of ultra and saber at 50:1! Out of curiosity, when I purchased my stihl fs 70r this spring I went ahead and got a gallon of motomix to run through it and a new blower (I also added 10.3ml hp ultra to the motomix for around a 44:1 mix) and after the gallon, there's no carbon buildup with a fair amount of oil film after looking through plug holes, intake and exhaust ports🤔 strange, considering how dirty and "dry" ultra runs in gasoline! Thanks again for sharing👍🏻

Well Richard, you've convinced me and I have seen enough to pull my head out of the bull's ass. I've been running Ultra for a long time with no problems that I could see, but i'm not inside my saws. Seeing all of these oil video's you've been doing has been eye opening and I've been seeing other channels saying the same things about Ultra. I have an Echo dealer right down the road from the Sthil dealer and I think I"m gonna give some Red Armor a try. Only Question is, should I stick to the recommended 50:1 or should I bump it a little richer to 40:1? Just found your channel and subbed, love your no B.S approach it's appreciated.
Rich nice oil conparison, these long time customer usage saws say it all. Nice to see the intervals when in for repair.👍 These may say the better story. I wonder how a logging saw would stack up, could she burn off even the lower quality oil due to longer WOT and longer usage between starts?
I tried STIHL oil for a short time, and did not like the results in my saws or snowmobiles.. I have been slowly changing over to Red Armor oil in my vintage saws, and so far it has proven to be excellent. I used Bardahl VBA for years, with no carbon or lubrication problems, but it hasn't been available for years, and I am just about out of my stash. The VBA was a little smokey in the thicker mixes. There is virtually no smoke from the Red Armor. It will be interesting to see how the Red Armer performs over time in comparison.
The only complaint I've heard about Red Armor is the price. It is a great oil. Depending on your needs It's a little cheaper by the pint and if you can justify it, the gallon jug will save you a ton. Spend a couple of bucks on a decent graduated measuring cup and start saving big!
I always buy oil by the gallon, as it is a lot cheaper that way. I did a video a while back talking about the prices of oils. Buying the small bottles is a complete rip off. I have an excellent measure to make sure I have the correct amount of oil for what I am doing. I am interested more in performance than cost, as I am not a pro, and usually use about 3 to4 gallons of oil a year. @@richardflagg3084
Over time Saber or most FD rated oils would reduce the carbon given the higher detergent package in them. Possibly a little Seafoam would help clear it up sooner.
Ultra is good But depending on what you're using it in You're going to have a lot of carbon build up Like the exhaust. That proves it's a good oil And improves that the epa is a bunch of jerks😂
In my humble opinion if your gonna own a stihl just get the max flow for it. In the long run your gonna save yourself some hastle and money in the future.
This is the most important evidence of how an oil performs, and I’m happy to hear good things about Sabre since I just bought some to mix at 40:1. I’m new to your channel, running a Stihl 038 Magnum in stock form with a 20” bar. Any reason to mix stronger than 40:1? What oils do you recommend? Thanks, great videos!!!
I think 32:1 would only be necessary when milling/ slabbing logs. In most any other application 40:1 should be fine. Saber performs better than most oils at 40:1 from what I've seen. It's also sold by the quart making it cheaper than any of the premeasured oils.
@@richardflagg3084 It’s strange they don’t sell Red Armor in quart size, I don’t like paying double for small packaging. A local garage sells Sabre by the quart at “preferred” price which makes me very happy!
