The toallity of all the posts lead me to draw conclusion that most oil work, most ratio within reason is ok.
That is about the best statement I have seen regarding oils. As far as ratios go, the only work I have seen really is the Jennings one that showed more oil made more power. Period. Makes more gunk as well, but his results were very clear.
Use ANY quality oil, use enough of it, keep it a bit rich and go fly. Then say goodbye to oil related issues.

Amen!!!
I have seen mufflers more than 1/2 blocked with carbon when a common brand of oil was used at 32:1. An oil and ratio change solved that problem. I do believe there are differences in oils .... all seem to lubricate just fine but the carbon produced can be very different from oil to oil.
You might have a point, maybe if someone have problem with deposit using certain oil and ratio, which cause problem on engine, please tell me so we can all learn. Very good point!!
