The best- XD-100, second best- XD-50.

Regular service will help a bunch.

On 10-27-99 it had an air sensor replaced and on 5-29-01 it had a PDS strap kit installed (update kit).

Thanks Rusty

What other service's do I need to do?

I change the plugs every year.
I use the carbon guard in the gas. (do I need to use this with the xd-100 oil?)
I've been using the xd-50 oil.
I de-carb the engine once a year.

Is there anything else I need to do?

Sounds like you have it covered, You do not have to use the XD-100 but your question was What is the Best oil.

[Mud Man]

Thanks again Rusty,

If I do switch oils, will the 2 oils mix together alright or will I have to drain the oil tank?

Should I still use the carbon guard in the gas?

Thanks

The two oils will mix and if you run XD-100 you will not need any additives.

[Mud Man]

With the XD-100 oil does that eliminate the need to de-carb?

[RUSTY63]

Yes.
