[QUOTE="SRAD, post: 1095682, member: 71942"] [b]Fuel-oil premix ratio effect[/b] I was thinking for 2 stroke, does lean mixture of fuel-oil ex.(18:1 or less) can affect something else beside throttle response and fouled spark plug if driving slow. Oil is lubricating piston, rod, crankshaft and bearings but can lean fuel mixture affect less cooling of piston crown because fuel also has some effect for cooling? I am asking all this because I worked on some 2 stroke machines that were driven hard and with stock oil pump setup, internal parts werent oiled well and it looked more dry than some of my bikes which were driven very hard but with oil pump set to maximum and some premix in reservoir which makes fuel-oil mix less than 20:1 and when I drive hard I dont have any problems. Sometimes I know to ride whole hour with very hi revs on open twisty road and I am scared that it is not well lubricated in that condition, so is there anything bad if I mix it about 18:1 when i ride really hard? The engine is Rotax 122 (Aprilia MX 125) Thanks [/QUOTE]
