SS- Thanks for the tip on the oil. I got the engine from a seller who I think had a "couple" of gallons through it, so I figure 3 or 4 more on Echo or Stihl break-in oil shouldn't hurt.

I assume the more oil, the more protection, but less power?

I'll switch over to AMSOIL at 50:1 after break in is assured.

I've got the 1.1 Edge, but I opened up the hole between the metal gear plates in the bottom of the fuse and half BME 50 head sticks out in the wind, so hopefully cooling is covered.
