I will agree that the oil residue does get old. it was very hard on the covering of my Reactor.
My Saito's don't spit out more oil than my O.S. engines.
That could be due to an overly rich condition, which the Saito's tolerate just fine.
They get better as they break in but compared to the OS they are snot slingers. If I'm buying new it is OS, on trades or engines given in payment for work done I will take them both. I just find the OS a bit better but like I said, it's about a nickles worth. I like the Saito 100s but tend to reach for the OS .91 when I'm building. Just a choice thing. I like both makes and I would reach for the Saito 1.25 before the OS 1.20, I just don't have any of the Saito 1.25s under the bench at the moment.
