This is probably one of the best oils you can find for our engines. My dad has been working for Mobil for more than 20 and really knows his stuff.

This oil leaves no carbon residue, while Amsoil does.

I used it in my DA's at 32:1, and I'm about to run it at around 43:1 on my 3W. Don't be discouraged by the high concentration of oil. It's designed to work like that. Like Gerhard at AI says: "Don't be stingy on oil!"

I've been running it at 40:1 (ZDZ recommendation) in my DA 150 and the engine runs great. I have a ZDZ 160 champ and ZDZ says only go to 40:1 at the most using 2T so I figure it's good enough for my DA too.

I run 40-1 in all my motors 4 210'z and a 160. I have also used it in 3W's and DA's with great success. This is the best oil I have ever used.

We don't have a ton of experience with it, but from what we have seen while servicing engines, those using it at 32:1 to 40:1 are looking OK.

If you were to chose. Would you preffer to run the DA on 32:1 or 40:1?
