schuey 30wt is ass. 35wtg
schuey 35wt is ass. 40wtg
schuey 40wt is ass. 45wtg ( EDIT: there is no such thing as AE 45wtg shock oil )
schuey 45wt is ass. 50wtg
etc etc etc...

Thanks in advance.

That's because schumacher oil does not mix well with temperature changes. I've used AE oil for about two years now and it's been very consistant compared to the schumy random days.

I have been wondering how close AE and losi oils are, on the link posted above they have 2 charts, i put them together and this is what they have come up with, you will see they really are random, so dont believe anyone when they say such and such it 5 wt lighter or heavier, which is nice
