The other side of the coin is that a 50:1 has more fuel in and thus better performance.
I would like other opinions on this too.Originally posted by Jackpiner57
Doesn't it depend on the oil manufacturers recommendations?
All 2-stroke oils are not the same.
I use Golden Spectro and they suggest from 42:1 to 64:1 and they claim that ratios of 100:1 routinely pass lubricity tests due to its superior film strength.
The guy who races at my dealer said to run it at 52:1
I have not had any problems.
With "regular" 2 cycle oil, the 32:1 is probably a good place to be.
Just check the plug because the more oil you put in the gas, the leaner you are running.
Do a search on oil sealing and power. I think it was Canyncarvr that posted something about tests by McCulloch on this very subject.
So for engine longevity we should be running 32:1 and jetting for best response?Originally posted by tedkxkdx
I have an article cut out with that test on the RM250 and debunking other myths about less oil is a good thing.
