Title: Premix ratio
Post by: coreyriggle on December 07, 2012, 12:36:32 AM

I'm curious what premix ratio people are using and why.
I had some trouble with my oil pump so i've bypassed in and I'm planning on running premix. I use 50:1 in my vespa, but was wondering if anyone had any sage advice.

thanks.

I mix about 39:1 (about 16.5 ounces for 5 gallons)

I think anywhere from 32:1 to 40:1 is ample oil

AMSOIL Dominator is what I use. Bel-Ray is good too

Pull the shaft out of the pump so it's not constantly spinning dry
