My brother is an Amzoil dealer and he things it's the greatest thing

about the recommended mix ratio. personally I think 100:1 is a bit
thin.

Anyone have any thoughts?


Yes. If you get it wrong on the light side, you're going to lose an
engine. Wrong the other way you'll just use a bit more oil and
change plugs more often. Seems like an easy choice to me.
