    these are the best rods out there and well worth the money. I have out fished my buddy every time iv been out fishing with him since i got these rods. And i never out fish him. I see/feel more bites than any other rod i have tried. I have a UL for sunnies and a L for crappies on up to walleyes. Amazing rods is all i can say. Good luck on choosing.

    Last night i sent an email to amsoil. This morning i called them. the guy i talked to said not to use amsoil for the break in period being it lubricats way better than conventional oil, then after the breakin period use an 80:1 ratio. This evening i got an email back from amsoil, which said to use a 50:1 for the breakin and then use the 100:1 after the breakin. Now i am confused

    How many tanks of gas do you burn throught it for a break in period?

    I talked to strikemaster about the ratio between the 40:1 and the 24:1(which my auger recommends) They told me that pre 08 augers call for 24:1 and 08 and newer run 40:1. they told me after my warrenty runs out to swich to 40:1 as tecumseh will not warrenty the motor if you run anything leaner during the warrenty. It has to do with the emmission laws. but i will dump the gas from the tank and run strikemasters oil/fuel mix for the first tank then. Thanks for the info

    Thanks for the info. I was thinking of calling Amsoil to see what they say about it, but i figured i would get a good answer from the people that actually run the stuff. I know there are enough people on here than run the stuff and i was wondering what ratio they run. Thanks again for the info.
