100:1 Got to make sure the oil spurts out when you rev your bike.

That would be about 30.1 I think. But like Newskooler said, buy a ratio rite.

16 oz of HP2 to five gallons of fuel. HP2 or Yamalube are the best two stroke oils that burn cleanly. Will not gum up your powervalve and leave you over the bars...


If you want smell good - Castor 927, leaves much carbon on powervalves.

Edit - you live at sea level, go richer then what I said. I run lean at 8000 feet.

why mix premix with regular gas...sounds like a ratio nightmare.

fact...2 oz's to a gallon.

67 something to 1. any leading synthetic will suffice..right dave? Smile

500ml to 4 gallons of gas is good. Your best bet it to mix it in a blender for about 3 hours so it's perfectly blended together. Safety first.

Did you know that back in the day Chevron gas stations use to sell 2 stroke premix and it was just rebadged Yamalube.

I can't stand them. There's never enough volume for a single pour of whatever I'm doing. I use a big old plastic measuring cup.

You guys would be surprised to know who makes what for who when it comes to oils. You can go to a bike shop and see two different brands with different prices but are the same oil.

So let us in on your industry secrets. I strictly use Maxima and Walmart products.

Just to confuse you all, a quart to 5 gallons is 20:1

Man, when we were 6 we never had this much trouble figuring out simple math!

If you can add 2+2 you can figure out a mix ratio.

Heard the same thing about gas on the street. Different names all claiming all kinds of things, but come out of same tanker.
