please help i have a stock 1988 banshee and want to know what is better straight 110 octane or premix?!!!!

It all depends on the compression on your motor. Adding smaller domes or advancing timing will higher the compression, therefore, the need for race gas.

 

As of right now, if you don't have much of that done to the bike you can run just regular gas without any benefit from race gas or mixing 50/50.

so is the pump gas 110 octane or 100?

[jbooker82]

110 octane is the yellow number on the gas pump. It is a rating on how much the fuel resists preignition.

 

Regular fuel is 87 octane

Premium fuel is 91-93 octane

Race fuel ranges any were from 105 to 118

 

 

Premix is what is called when you have your oil mixed with your fuel. The oil is Premixed in the gasoline vs having an oil injector and just putting regular non mixed oil in the tank.

[TeamRealtreeHD]

Pump gas is usually 93 octane that you can buy at the normal mini marts and gas stations. Usually the premium gas.

 

110 octane is race gas, and a banshee doesn't need that until the compression gets higher to help prevent detonation.\

 

It can be purchased at ATV shops, hot rod shops, drahstrips, etc.

 

In your case, just use the good preium pump gas from a gas station until you choose a cool head and dome. When you do that, the size of the dome will decide what gas is needed...

please help i have a stock 1988 banshee and want to know what is better straight 110 octane or premix?!!!!

 

if its stock dont waste the money just buy 91 octane. and if you put straight gas in it it will blow up in less then 5 MIN if you are asking about oil you have to have it its twostroke. mix it at 32:1

oh i know that you gotta mix ive been 2-strokes for 4 years now my kx85 ran 32:1 ratio...

i just dont know much of nothin about banshees like there fuel mix ratio for a stock shee? what is the mix ratio for a stock banshee?

[TeamRealtreeHD]

Yamaha recommends 24:1 I believe with their Yamalube

 

You will be ok with 32:1, 36:1, 40:1 with any good 2 stroke oil. I use Klotz Supertechniplate. Many others do as well. Castor 927 is another popular oil

 

Good luck and stick with Premium pump gas

[LS1Inferno]

yeah the most common mixture is 32:1 and i used to use castor 927 but i switched to the mobile 1 fully synthetic from autozone i like it better. but as said earlier anything above 91 Octane is a waste for a stock banshee

[BURRITO]

40:1 Torco GP7 with 110oct

 

Thats what my ride gets every trip...
