Well you know more  than the main dealer dose because that’s what they told me ,and it did make a difference  than running  50:1 stihl oil , 

[pleasant]

This from their own workshop manual (which I  have attached to an earlier post)

 

mixing two-stroke oil

(ratio 1:50)

with TITAN 2T 100S 1:100

 

 

So yes, Stihl at 50:1 is fine, as is their own 'Titan' brand which is designed to be diluted at 100:1

 

So, I repeat, it is the oil manufacturers recommended dilution ratio that should be adhered to. If you ran Stihl 50:1 at 100:1 which the Titan oil is recommended to be diluted at, you would very quickly trash the engine.

 

The dealer should know this.

No they don’t run of stihl at 50:1 as I said they recommend there own oil at 100:1 , if you try and run it @50:1 they run like a bag of nails , I think if you check what I wrote I never said run it off stihl,

Just read what it says in the workshop manual.

 

It states.....can run on a 50:1 mix (Stihl OR any other manufacturers oil recommended to be diluted at 50:1) OR using their own 'Titan' oil at their recommended dilution ratio of 100:1

 

I know you didn't state Stihl...I was using that as an example of a recommended dilution ratio, that should NOT be diluted at any other ratio other than what Stihl stipulate...likewise the Titan 100:1 as mentioned in the manual

 

Or are you suggesting you are using a 50:1 dilution ratio oil at a 100:1 dilution rate in it now? If so, that is half the oil it needs to give the required protection to your engine.

It doesn’t matter what it says they only run right of their own oil , @ 100:1 ,

I know this from experience , not from a manual ,

Use Red Line racing 2T oil . can be mixed at any ratio from 30:1 down to 100:1  Get some and try it ......

No, that's fine. I see too many scored bores on a monday already, without confusing people even more.

We are not talking in general we are talking about this machine , These are a one off set up like no other I have ever seen  and after running  four of them for three years wish never to see again ,
