auger oil

[mrcarp]

HI DOES ANY ONE KNOW THE RATIO OF OIL TO GAS FOR ONE GALLON OF GAS FOR 24 TO ONE ON ICE AUGERS I CANT FIND ANY THAT YOU JUST POUR IN TO ONE GALLON OF GAS AND THEY ARE CONFUSING THE MIXES ON THE LABEL THANK YOU

[Ryan_V]

I use the amsoil sabre 100:1 and my auger has never run better. I use it in all my small engines now!! if you don't want to go that route, hardware stores sell the small bottle to make 24:1.

You need about 5.3 oz of oil to 1 gallon of gas.

I will second the use of the Amsoil sabre oil.

[Jim Almquist]

I will have to third the Amsoil. I bought the little packets that you put in with 1 gallon of gas.Good for the auger,weedwacker and the chainsaw.

Now to make the oil mixture a little more confusing for the season.

This year Tecumseh has approved a 40:1 oil mixture in your 2-cycle power augers. New augers coming out for this season will have the new 40:1 recommendation.

Tecumseh also stated that you can use the 24:1 or 40:1 mixture ratio on old or new engines.

To obtain the proper 40:1 mixture it is 3.2oz. of oil to 1 gallon of gas.

Jiffy this year will have the new ratio bottles available this year with fuel stabilizer already added.

Yeah!!!! Less smoke:)

I had to throw my two cents in here. Picked up a packet of Amsoil Sabre 100:1 at the ice fishing show last year and I am a believer. I know that isn't the question but it would be a suggestion. One mix for all your stuff and everything runs better too! Also, you don't have to call your high school physics teacher to figure out mixes anymore. Good Luck.

Go with the Amsoil Sabre, and don't worry about if it'll run for ya or not. That stuff is awesome. The Oilman down in Florida will hook you up.

thanks for the help were do i find amsoil 100 to one how much does it cost will i burn my moter up thanks

[theoilman]

To answer your questions in reverse order:

No, you won't burn up your motor. AMSOIL gives you a lubricant guarantee that basically says if you use it the way AMSOIL recommends AMSOIL guarantees you against lubricant failure.

NOTE: There are 2 different AMSOIL Saber products. For your Auger (and all other air cooled pre-mix 2-stroke engines) use the Saber Professional. [saber Outboard is for your water cooled pre-mix outboard motor.]

The Saber Professional is available in several package sizes. The most convenient for mixing small quantities of gas is the "pillow pack" packet which mixes 1 gallon of gas, the suggested retail is $1.30. The 3.5-oz bottle will mix 2 to 2 1/2 gallons of gas, sugg retail $2.10. The 8-oz bottle which will mix 6 gallons (many people use the whole 8-oz in a 5 gallon gas can, running it richer but convenient), sugg retail $3.70.

A few stores do sell it, but I would appreciate the business, you can order it direct on line, follow my link. UPS direct to your door, 1 or 2 business day delivery to most in Minnesota from the Superior, WI distribution center.

thanks don i just ordered some oil from you thanks for the info would this work for other 2 cycle stuff my weed wacker sounds like good stuff many happy people here thank you

[anyfishwilldo]

weed wackers, chain saws, leaf blowers, any 2 stroke air cooled engine. The amsoil also works great in your auto too. When it all boils down, it is cheaper than standard oil, with much better protection. I bought my Chev new in 95, used Amsoil since the first oil change, and still going very strong at better than a quarter of a million miles. I have only changed the oil 11 times with all those miles. Thats one of the beauties of amsoil.
