Anyone Running 32:1 Redline in a DA?

[Terryscustom]

All old info on the TBM site (their site is long outdated and they haven't sold ZDZ for quite a few years), newer ZDZ engines can be run at 40:1 and I have personally proven that they don't need break-in oil on my 112 this past summer. Just treat them like any other engine.

Feel free to call Joe at ZDZUSA for clarification and up to date complete information if you need it.

This is good to know about obsolete information, guys like me who don't see many , if any ZDZ flying aren't in the loop . Thanks

My ZDZ will take to the sky in about 11 days.

Even DA has changed their recommendations a few times, now it's Redline from the start and go have fun.

I just installed ES composite pipes on mine but have not fired it up yet. Weather starting to clear up quick though!!!

DA used to recommend Amsoil years ago for their engines now simply Redline !

Yes they highly recommend redline oil. They also say stihl HP Ultra and there is another. Amsoil has been out for a while.

I have tried all the brands and prefer redline 32:1. I do know the motor can handle 40:1. I ran 32:1 in my DA's back in the day. They ran cool and preformed good. I also use av gas. This is just my opinion from my experience.

I run 32:1 Redline in all my engines. redline is the best there is for 2 cycle engines.
