S.T. I tried Binak when it first came out and it was pretty bad stuff. I tried to get the 4 bottles of 495 replaced, as I heard on TH, that they did
have problems. To answer your question, I would clean everything real good as Mikey said, before I switched to any different oil. Hybrid Pro Oil
was my fix for Binak. Here is a viscosity chart, but doesn't show Binak.
