What type of oil do you run?

[pjsrider]

What type of oil are you running in ya'lls skis? I am running a pretty bad 550 engine and so far i have had several cranks fail on me at the rod bearings. I am running a mixture of marvel and supertech oil. The cylinders look great with very little wear, but the bearings go on the crank end of the rod occasionaly.. the crank is a pjs racing crank and the rods are made by someone for pjs. Will running clots or another racing oil help with this? I am only running 175 compression, but the engine is a fire breather and has actually broken several crank webs. I know the oil wont help with the crank webs breaking, but any input would be great.

Thanks
Jay

Thanks for that thread.. I looked, but the search came up with a million hits and nothing dedicated to oil.

Thanks again

Is a synthetic blend better than all synthetic? Or is does the synthetic help anything?
