For Amsoil Sabre, try local motorcycle/go-kart/snowmobile/etc. racing/speed shops and the like.

While you're at the motorcyle shop pick up some Royal Purple or Red Line nix the Amsoil (just my personal experience)

Turk the flys a full scale PT 17 out of the mariposa airport is a distributor but I too would go with the red line. Do a google and key word Amsoil.

I've bought it online, direct from Amsoil. There are also a number of amsoil dealers in the Fresno/clovis area and you can get their information on the web page.

I tell you what though... I have one un-opened quart and one partial quart of Amsoil Saber that you can have.Just PM me.

I tried it and for my general sort of sport flying, it just didn't seem to make any difference. The engine ran just as well on the 2-stroke oil I bought at OSH. Over the long haul, I'm sure the Amsoil will keep the ports cleaner and I imagine it might make a little difference in a competition situation where you are running the engine hard and getting it hot. For me though, it just wasn't worth the money.<br type="_moz" />

Chuck, my engines ran better with the chain saw oil or MC two stroke oil. Then I went back to Klotz and it was the best of both worlds.

Amsoil is not very popular around here. A friend had 6 bottles at the swap meet last Saturday at half price and it didn't sell.

You are lucky them - use some real lube. Your engines will love you for it.

I never found anything wrong with Amsoil but all my engines ran very well with other oils that I could get just about anyplace and for a lot less money. Most all auto and motor cycle shops have synthetic or blended oils. My Brisons called for synthetic at 100:1 and I think I had more of a problem with that then the engines. I don't like having to order oil either and wait for it to get here. The Klotz is a blended synth and even has castor in the blend. My LHS has it in stock too.
I used to run Amsoil in my sand dragester, even there trans fluid, I loved the stuff but just couldn't afford to keep using it.I also had a good discount on the price back then but it was still high dollar.
