Oil

[1993TA]

I just bought a 04 Banshee. I haven't even seen it yet. and am new to the fourm...ive had a warrior before but where this one is a 2 stroke is there oil injection or do i need to mix with the gas?

its a premix for sure, no banshee is oil injected

unless somebody has ever rigged something like that on one? i think it would be pointless

use a good oil and the oil container should give a recomondation for a premix ratio, typically 32:1 or 40:1

i use 4 ounces of oil to 1 gallong , and never had a problem... i personally reccoment castor 927 oil..

All Banshees require premix. The more recent Blasters have oil injection. I would recommend a Synthetic Blend oil or a full synthetic such as Amsoil. I personally run Golden Spectro at 48:1. When you decide on an oil, look at that manufacturer's recommendations for the mix ratio. Invest in a Ratio Rite cup, that way you can buy a larger quantity jug of oil (usually a little cheaper) and not be guessing at what your oil mix ratio is. Remember, a common mistake new 2 strokers make is thinking that if a little oil is good, a little more must be better. All you need is just enough oil to maintain lubrication for the bores and bearings. Too much oil will often lead to higher engine temperatures.

I use Klotz supertechniplate. Love it. I run 32:1. Haven't had any prob's yet. Just my 2 cents worth.
