Default RE: DLE 55 oil slection?


ORIGINAL: andretorres89

Thank you both for the great help.

Ill just stick with the recommendations of 30 to 1 for now until i get more comfortable with the system.

Pennzoil seems to be used by both of you, yet (w8ye) you stated that Stihl Ultra has the best reputation. Howcome you guys dont use it instead? -Just wondering because I like to get whats best.

Btw are both those two oil types Ash-less?

Thank you once again,
-Andre.
I run BelRay MC-1 synthetic motorcycle racing oil in all my gas engines, including the DLE55 and BME58, at 50:1, from the start including break in. A friend who has been in the motorcycle racing business for a very long time, recommended that route when I got into gas engines 4 years ago. It has served me well.

MC-1 comes in convenient 12.8 oz bottles; 1 bottle in 5 gallons of gas gives me 50:1. Simple, no fuss, no measuring
