01banch Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I Run 40:1 but I know people here in Oregon who have been running Redline @ 100:1 for a few years on the same motor. But I would try 40-50 to be safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Saber Professional (ATP) is specifically designed for small engines including, but not limited to, chain saws, lawn equipment, blowers, chop saws, pumps, scooters and go-carts. I wouldnt run it in my banshee. 8oz of oil for 5 gallons of fuel isnt enough for me. 1 quart would treat 20 gallons. I wouldn't go past 50 to 1. I run 40:1 my self.

strokerdan Posted January 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 so would i need to change the jetting if i start running 40 or 50:1 or should it be fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkeypuncher Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 amsoil saber is rated for 100:1. its perfectly safe to run it at 80:1. ive been running saber in my bike for 2-3 years, along with a couple of my riding buddies, with absolutely no problems. just my .02. edit: forgot to mention that i run saber at 80:1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 That was originally designed for chain saws and weed wackers. If your a die hard amsoil fan run Dominator it is designed for Racing 2 stroke engines with high hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray0311 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 so would i need to change the jetting if i start running 40 or 50:1 or should it be fine? Yes! when you run more fuel 80:1 with oil you dont have to run large jets at all, keep running the amsoil its a great product nothing wrong with the saber.
