As I said my head hurts from reading all of these things about oil. So I am going with the ashless for break in and then pennzoil air cooled oil. One more then can I use the pennz for both and just change the mixture? Thank you

Don't fret so hard about it. Just run the pennzoil at 32 to 1 for break in, then change to a 40 to 1 ratio. You can run the Pennzoil for the life of your engine. Heck, you can run it at 32 to 1 for the life of your engine if you want to, won't hurt a thing. Oil is the life blood of any engine, just don't skimp on your ratio and you'll be fine.
