Default RE: SAP 180 (Syssa Performance)

Syssa break-in oil

Hi, Matt, I don't have the Syssa manual with me (I'm at work) and don't remember if it detailed any special break-in instructions or specific oils/ratios.

Normally I just use the Pennzoil 2-cycle air-cooled all the time, 32:1 for break-in (about a gallon with an engine this size) and then go to 40:1 and lean a smidge after that.

How did you run in your SAP 180? I remember somewhere you or Ed mentioned synthetic (AMSoil Sabre?) at 100:1, but I'm assuming you broke it in with something else, no? I know DA is now recommending Redline at 100:1, but I am quite happy running everything with Pennzoil at 40:1. Any problem using exclusively Pennzoil with the Syssa?
