I love it... It's +14*F right now and heading for negative temps tonight... Lets see if the 2 cycle oil hold up... Time to breakout the snowmobile oil with a pour point down to -40*F...

Guess I'm lucky, I'm on 174K on the origional VP44, still no issues!
Haven't tried the 2 stroke oil yet, but doesn't sound like a bad idea, especially now that I'm having to run #1 blends..

1/2 ounce to the gallon. Don't know if it helps but, can't hurt.

Does your truck run smoother from the 2-stroke or cause you're feeling it up?
