No, not another oil thread. Everyone has a brand he prefers and we don't need to discuss what is better or who uses which oil why. My question is concerning flash points and engines.
I wonder why all 300 Gasser's I know (and I know quite some) have a tendency to spooge. When I compare it to all my former KTM 300's and those of friends it is very obvious that the Gasssers spooge a lot(!) more. I dare say it is not the carb/jetting nor does changing from 50:1 to 60:1 make any difference. So why is this?
Lower compression? Lower combustion temperatures? (colder plug vs KTM)
Second question is, is it true that an oil with very high flash point (e.g. Motul 800) produces much more spooge than an oil with a low flash point (e.g. Motul 710)?
The statement that spooge is solely a jetting problem has been proven to be wrong at least 100 times.
I crosspost my questions on TT.
