Change everything to ounces and it will be easier, 128 ounces in a gallon, so you need 3.2 ounces of oil.
 
3.2 ounces of oil to a gallon of gas is 40:1 which we allready know so 5 gallons x 3.2=16 ounces of oil.Yes.=-)
Ive ran 40:1 but it burns a bit fast.Motor seems to run faster.But 32:1 feels safer.IMO.And I run redline.
 
40:1 Maxima Super M Synthetic on my Banshee . I like the Super M due to its low smoke characteristics , LOL the cops can't follow my smoke trail back to the house if i'm out on a Beer run to the 7-11

so if i use that oil it want smoke as bad?
 
WTF /\ /\ /\ /\ Bull feathers!

How the crap can a 40:1 premix make for faster running.

Stop posting s**t
Less oil.Fuel thinner and has more cumbustion.Less oil Nothing to drown the spark.But not much to lube your cylinder either.I would amagine or guess.But I dont know the science behind it just how I see it when comparing it after a day of riding.But if you have an opinion.Better you pute facts behind it rather bash someone and the only thing that you can think of is to stop posting.Your really not that smart.8-|

Let me apologise for saying that you are posting crap.

What I should have said is that you are posting absolute crap.

And that last post just confirmed it.

nope, hardcore racers that dont worry about the price of oil run quite rich actually, 20:1 will increase hp compared to 40:1 as 2 stroke oil is very combustable which is why we run that instead of regualr oil. it also lubricates much better. most of us try to run leaner is because here 2 stroke oil is like 12 bucks a litre. which is like 45 bucks a gallon...quite expensive.

this was posted a looong time ago by phragle which is where i got this info.

so rich, if your not sure about somthing, please dont give people wrong information. or otherwise know and "crap"
 
Fuel premix does NOT mean you run all that faster, (that has to do with porting, carb size, exhaust and other mods) it will just change your AFR. Also does not mean you should burn fuel any faster. That all depends on air flow thru your carb, (negative pressure from the RPMs, venturi size, air filter, air box lid or not) and how much you push your thumb or twist your wrist. .8 ounces of oil per gallon of fuel isn't much...if you were to put a gallon of premix in a glass cylinder, then draw a line around the cylinder with a sharpie marker, the thickness of that line is more than the ratio of the .8 ounces of oil in that gallon of premix...positive or negative. Less oil in the gallon of premix just means, with the same jetting, that your AFR just became slightly richer with fuel....and yes, now you have less oil to lubricate the rings and cylinder, and that means you could run at a hotter temperature because of an increase in friction....but it's not that big of a change to FREAK OUT about. Just plug chop and verify...
 
I purposley run 25:1 castor oil for the express reason, as more oil within reason will give a slight increase in compression, which in turn gives a little increase in HP.

Changing from 32:1 to 40:1 without decreasing main jet size would decrease power due to a richer mixture.

One cannot expect to increase power by merely swapping oil ratios, and swapping ratios can cause serious problems to the inexperienced user.

It is irresponsible to advocate that 40:1 oil ratio may make a motor run faster, some poor cluck may just try doing so, and stuff up his motor.
 
im just gonna add 4 more ounces to my 5 gallon mix which currently is at 40:1 and then it will be 32:1
Good Ideal.40:1 is not going to kill the motor.It should have a good burn and lube the cylinder fine but yes it burns up faster its thinner.But it will run a tad hotter.Running more oil (more than 32:1)Will add more compressiong(torque) and really coat the cylander but then you are going to run into carbon build up and cause seriouse promblems down the road...I think I am going to go out side and take a match to this 2 stroke oil and see how fast it ignights.I:I.

And the person specificly told me in another thread that 25:1 would blow your motor.Im about to get banned over that and now he runs this mix.
 
my last plug chop showed i was a lil lean and that was with 40:1 and 280 main so im just gonna leave everything change to 32:1 and see what the chop shows?

If you are lean with 40:1 then with 32:1 you are going to be leaner due to oil taking the place of fuel.

Up the main 2 sizse berore you plug chop.
