I ask 'cos in the Uk we talk about ml (mililitres) and petrol. If so, your 160ml per 5 litres is a ratio of 31.25 : 1 What kind of oil are you using? That usually determines what ratio you should be using. I use Silkolene Pro 2 (Full Synthetic Ester) at a ratio of 33:1 (150ml per 5 Litres of fuel). Rare. Quote

banshee mx Posted May 3, 2005 Author Report Posted May 3, 2005 im in scotland (sorry i didnt know how you guys said it in the us) im running putoline mx5 2stroke oil Quote
Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted May 4, 2005 Report Posted May 4, 2005 im running putoline mx5 2stroke oil 363859[/snapback] According to their website ( http://www.putoline.com/eng/start.html ), MX5 is a Synthetic/ SAE 40 which they say to mix at 2 - 4 % which will be between 100ml and 200ml per 5 litres. ... 2% is 50:1 and 4% is 25:1 Putoline is European and therefore you might be better to use Quad Heaven in the UK to see if anyone's using it in their 'Shee here for an idea of what ratio to run. I use their light gear oil for the trans. (SAE 75). Where abouts in Scotland are you? Rare. Quote

Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted May 4, 2005 Report Posted May 4, 2005 thanx, im in inverness. where about are you 364297[/snapback] About 20 or so miles south of Edinburgh on the Lammermuir Hills. Keep in mind that the higher ratio of fuel to oil that you mix, the richer the fuel will be. Rare. Quote
