Another excellent 562 video Mr. Richard. Nice machine and flow work what was revealed. I enjoyed the oil "pooling" commentary in the crankcase...very nice..
I have recently discovered your channel and glad I did. Some great discussions going on here and you are doing great on your videos. I have ran ultra in 3 stihls and motomix and I love my stihls . However when it comes to their lubricants they can keep them . I run 40:1 and their old orange bottle is great stuff . I am starting to try different other products and so far I have tested vp and I like it alot.
Everyone can run what they like obviously. After much deliberation I however settled on 42.5:1 with good old Orange Stihl HP (Castrol). I do hit the engines with a direct carb injected (engine running) de-carbon product 4-5 times a year.
Hey Rich, i currently have a 28 inch Tsumura bar that is at home on a ported 372. The oil holes are horrible about clogging on that bar and even with the oiler turned all the way up it doesn't oil like i want it to. I'm currently on one of the forums and apparently it is an issue that multiple people have. I personally believe it is because of how flared the tail of the bar is that lets a bunch of crap get pulled into the bar. Anyway nice work on the saw and as always, thanks for the great content. God Bless!
I would love to see how you do your combustion chamber work. I have watched hours Upon hours of video on the subject. I have an old lathe and can cut the base down but am not Confident enough to try the squish band yet.
They are pretty reliable to be honest. I respect your thinking. The newer standard carbs have issues we didn't used to see. "they just don't make em' like they used to" is truer now, than ever.
I have had a look back at some of you oil testing vids, I have one for you to test it is the opti - 2 two stroke oil it is like the dominator oil you can take it out too 100 to 1 in saws it is made in the U S if you can get the oil it would make a good test. I also never see any Valvoline 2 stroke test on you tube is it not a highly recommended oil in the states. Any way cheers.
@@MrJeepfreak1972 Pls dont use dominator in any engine that's not disassembled every few dozen hours. That 562 crank has rust on it. Yikes. Dominator is for engines that are used and are disassembled and cleaned/swapped often, it has no corrosion inhibitors in it. If the engine is used often enough its fine, if its not its a nightmare waiting to happen. I've seen a few saws wrecked by using it and then put away for half a year in a basement, the crank and bearings were completely brown/rusted. Done. Never seen that on any other non-racing oil, only on racing oils. And it makes sense. Avoid. Just get Saber from amsoil if you wanna stick to the brand.
@@em4703 I've been using it 5 years. I've done extensive storage testing ect in unheated garage in weather from 0 through 95 and high humidity. ZERO rust in any engine. I also don't run any ethanol fuel either. That no corrosion inhibitor nonsense is an internet rumor. Ask Amsoil. The oil is for any engine except outboards requiring TCW3, not because of rust, because outboards running on non tcw3 oil can carbon up from the ash based detergents.
@@em4703 I've seen many people say the same thing about klotz super techniplate, my bike has been apart 3 years now and I'm still waiting on it to rust😂 project farm did a rust test using dominator and it showed no rust😂😂 way better than super tech did.
They were destined for use around the 50:1 mix but many other tuber folks run 40 and 32:1, so I’m really sure that you’re NOT going to have an issue Mr George.
I have two M-Tronic saws. I run 25:1 in them without issue. I find its more oil dependant than the ratio. Some oils at 32:1 start giving even carbed saws tuning issues. I tried Castrol GO at 32:1 and I had an off idle stumble with my 201C and two manually adjusted saws wouldn't 4 stroke no mater how far out I adjusted the high needle. These are all 36cc and under. The Castrol ran fine in larger CC equipment I own.
@@MrJeepfreak1972 that’s quite interesting. I seem to be having that “lack” of 4stroke issue with my buddies CS355T Echo right now, and I’m running Echo Red Armor oil in it at approximately 32-1. But I definitely know that it’s NOT running lean.
That rusted conrod says otherwise. Racing oil, no corrosion inhibitors. All the acids from the combustion have a field day with anything made out of steel. I wonder how bad the bearings are
Sounds beautiful. Very crisp on the throttle.
Another top video Richard! Always appreciate seeing the oil & internals of the engines!!
She's a ripper👍🏻 always good to see others using better than oem oils!
I've used the grease around the lip for the 1st gen saws, but nothing beats the new improved filter design.
Nice video. 👍
I have too. It helps a little but still not as good as the upgrade kit. Thanks!

I'm a new subscriber. I would love to see the test of the red armor oil. I'm loving the oil test series.

Thank you for the info on the bar! I'll keep an eye out for it. He just left with the saw. Lol!! I have several other customers with the Tsumura bars.
I use a small diameter caterpillar fuel o rings with a tiny big of grease works like a charm 😊
Oooo me likey!!!!
'How bout them Dawgs'!!
The CFP commission missed it by just a little. The cream is rising to the top....
Good oil for sure looks nice 👍
Bad SOB right there!
Like your shirt. Class of ‘67.
Dawgs look good!
@@richardflagg3084 better than the tigers.🤪
love me the 562xp , Just subbed

Bel roy h1 oils testing
It cuts but I don't like the electronic carbs.

Thanks! I'll try to find some Opti 2.
Saber is Amsoils 100:1 oil.
Dominator is a 50:1 oil. The bottle says racers can alter the ratio as needed. Paraphrasing that last bit.

Do you have a part number for the air filter base upgrade
GO DAWGS!!!!
Was wondering where in Ga you are?🏈
Upstate South Carolina actually. How Bout' them DAWGS!!!
GA put it on T, my Tigers did what they needed to do against Bama….
Honda hp2 ok 👍 3.2:1
Golly those saws rip
Is it the same air filter as the 550?
Do you use any liquid gasket sealer in addition to the base gasket?
I personally like Permatex anaerobic gasket sealer. It's one of the few that is rated for gasoline contact. Motoseal is another good one.
sec👍👍👍
How much to do a 572 like that. Located in south ga
I only do saws locally and really can't take on much more work than I have now.
@@richardflagg3084 I enjoy the content
Great work, have you experienced any issues on Auto tune or m tronic using a 40:1 mix
They were destined for use around the 50:1 mix but many other tuber folks run 40 and 32:1, so I’m really sure that you’re NOT going to have an issue Mr George.
Great , just wondering how fussy they were , with sales saying they adjust to ambient temp , altitude and fuel quality. Many thanks
@@georgehitchen7526 it’s quite all right and your thanks are appreciated.

@em4703 that's not rust buddy.😂
What suggestion for a air filter for a ms 271 chainsaw
That factory filter is actually pretty good. Once it doesn't make a good seal on the filter housing replace it.
First...👌👌👏🙋🇷🇴
