Hey Krayzc, funny you mention oil change, the first 3 years was on the original formula Amsoil at 64-1, I've used that mix since 1985 and never a problem. The last 2 years I ran the new Amsoil (Saber) also at 64-1. Spring time of this year running Saber is when I suffered the first seizure, and after talking with Keith at BME I switched to Pennzoil air cooled at 50-1. I've flown all my other gassers since with Pennzoil and it seems pretty good, but when I fired up the BME, 2 minutes into the flight BAM! The cyl. temps were low 189 & 154, checked immediately upon landing. I'm not blaming the pennzoil and I believe I will continue to use it, must have been that lean high needle setting in which I ASSUMED was OK. Like I said I blame no one but myself, If I had counted the turn (less than 3/4) on the high side, I would have without a doubt opened it at least another 1/2 or even 3/4, especially in this heat.
