Amsoil Saber is fantastic stuff. I first tried it in an old jiffy that had run for years at 24:1.
This motor had started to idle poorly and needed to be warmed up for a long time before it would stay running.
I was skeptical of the claims you could run it 100:1 in any two stroke and it would be safe.
I bought some anyway and the first time mixed it about 70:1.
The first time out I noticed a difference right away. The motor started quicker and idled no problem. The more holes I drilled the better it ran. There was very little 2 stroke odor and after a few holes started to idle better than it did when new. Eventually I had to slow down the idle screw. I think it had just cleaned out years of too rich a mixture. After that first batch I started mixing it 100:1 and that old jiffy is still going. I now use it in all my small two stoke motors. This synthetic oil at 100:1 has better lubricity than regular oils at 50 or 25 to one. My nephew now has that Jiffy and I am running Amsoil in my Tanaka. Reliable starts no matter how cold. Do a google search you will find a lot of happy users. I also put seafoam in every motor I own boats golf carts trimmersTrucks it just works.

Same mix I use along with seafoam and I only use premium fuel (Shell)

It was a 2hp model 76 with a Tecumseh motor.
