Exactly what your grandparents would have said about your... "Telephone". And buying things from China.
My parents and grandparent used to order things by snail mail from the Sears and Roebucks catalogs as well as Montgomery Wards and Fingerhut catalogs...lol...lol.
Ahh yes, them good ol' days. Now things arrive over night with Amazon lol.

Ps...My grandparents on both sides grew up using telephones...lol...In Boston, not long after Alexander Graham Bell of Boston invented that damn instrument of the devil and started his Bell Systems phone service...Those were the days before even dialing your phone, you just picked up the headset and told the operator who you wanted to call and the operator placed the call for you...lol.

That's really funny. Anyways, what 2 stroke oil do you use, along with what ratio?
 
That one is easy enough...lol...Start off with Ethanol-Free gasoline as ethanol eats through the crank seals on these motors as well as damages the aluminum surfaces and plugs up the carburetors too...Always mix in a one gallon gas container for a good vigorous shaking once oil and gas is mixed...Never pre-mix into gas tank as it will not meld properly together that way.

For breakin purposes, I use Valvoline Multipurpose 2 cycle oil available most everywhere at 25:1 ratio that will be only a gallon of gas/oil mix you will need for breakin purposes which will make two tank fulls.


I use Amsoil full synthetic after the breakin period is over with at 32:1 ratio on the Zeda 80 Firestorm motors, (Not on the Phantom 85s though, I use 20:1 mix on them).


I also use 1 ounce per gallon of Amsoil Octane boost as well

Any thoughts on this one everyone? I think this is actually a good deal...
I stopped using Huffy frames for anything motorised after the frame of my Huffy snapped on me making it totally useless.

I went to the stronger Hyper frames after that fiasco...lol.

Makes sense. That oil is dirt cheap, I'll have to run it in my other equipment too.

Have you really had better luck with ethanol free gas? I've always used fresh e10 gas in my lawn equipment and never had an issue. Always with stabilizer.

You don't want to do that with these China Girls...They already have and will continue to eat away at all the things I previously mentioned...Just ask @ImpulseRocket89 as well as @Sidewinder Jerry...Especially Jerry, even with his 4 strokers he has got some stories he can tell ya of ethanol problems with his motor and other equipment.
