STIHL HP Ultra or alternative


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Ok all you gassers out there....I am new to gas engines and have just setup my first plane with a DLE20. I have read on many of the forums and found that STIHL HP Ultra is mostly recommended at 32:1.

I have found it very difficult to find the HP Ultra therefore looking for a good replacement type....

Any recommendations??

Penzoil air cooled 2 stroke oil. I figure if the guys around here trust it in there ultralights its good enough for me and my plane.
32:1 works great.

I've been using Amsoil SABER® Professional Synthetic 2-Stroke in my dle 20 for a few years 32:1 with no problems.

Hey Shaggy,

Equipment Express in Okotoks should be able to help you out as they are listed as a Stihl dealer.

I get my Stihl Ultra at Brothers Two in the Foothills Ind. park in Calgary.
