Just in case some one wants to read up on the OSHA health issues with Veggie oil verses petrol oil mist issues.

Thanks Reddog for posting that . It appears there is no recorded reports of adverse effect to lungs in humans with veggie oil mist.

Different report for mineral oil mist though

Maybe something useful here for folks using ethanol:

I think veggie oil mist is in those electric cigarettes btw.

I dont like it because I think it and orange stihl stink really bad. Am using red armor by shindaiwa, they claim it protects against ethanol damage and such.

If I could afford it I would run castor 927 pre mix and 110 octane in my saws just to smell the fumes and remind me of two stroke motocross days!

Thanks Wally for fixing that .
The exposure limits and health effects table shows the dangers of mineral oil mist, but the table is not popping up for vegetable oil mist.
Thanks again for adding to this excellent old thread.

Now with veg they list it the same as dust, so there is a link for in the mist file for "Particulates Not Otherwise Regulated (Respirable Fraction)"

This sheet. https://www.osha.gov/dts/chemicalsampling/data/CH_259635.html

Have been using Red Max full synthetic for years with no issues.

Wally,nope not the same table as you originally posted that said nothing of lung disease.

They seem to have changed the whole layout and table contents with some sort of upgrade.
Maybe I will see if one of the wayback web sites has a old copy in my spare time.


:edit added to post #31 the original one by using web archive.
Looked at copy/pasting the contents but the reports are just to long.

Might laugh. But im rockin quicksilver semi synthetic outboard oil with 93 octane. Ran it forever in my 450p before removing muff to mod it. Swiped my finger accross the piston and rings coated with oil. So im only going to run that. Im happy. 25 bucks at walmart for a gallon. I run everthing at 32-1ratio and tune carb for it to boot.
