[QUOTE="Micahdawg, post: 741772, member: 21668"] I have read on the Eric Gorr website that adding extra oil to set amount of gas will actually lean out the mixture! how do you explain that Rich? I took some chemistry, lay it on me..[/QUOTE] That's the thing. A lean premix = more gas/less oil. A lean air/fuel ratio = less gas/more air. Both need to be taken into account. When someone talks about rich or lean, make sure you know if they are referring to premix or air/fuel as they are both kind of opposite in their own context. Which is probably how so many arguments start. To answer your question...more oil to a set amount of gas will reduce the amount of gas in the premix. Depending on ratio of course. By reducing the amount of gas, that make a rich premix, but lean air/fuel ratio. (less gas than if the premix were light on oil) Micah [/QUOTE]
