ok question, i blocked off my oil metering pump cuz i didnt wanna deal with replacing my metering lines. i know im gonna need to run an oil/gas mix in the tank, but what oil am i supposed to use? 2 stroke cycle gas? and whats the mixture ratio? help me out here

 

TCW3 2-cycle oil, 1 oz. per gallon.



That's what the semi-general consensus, of course there are many other opinions and theories.

 

The TCW-3 grade is essential. Don't just use 2-cycle oil made for weed whackers. The TCW-3 stuff is made to be run through fuel injection systems. If you can't find it anywhere, just try your local boat store. A lot of boat engines run the stuff.

 

Go Yamalube



I've run a few different makes/brands, but the key is the ratio. 100:1 minimum....

 

thanks guys, appreciate the help. its my buddies car and we expect to be producing around 400 to the wheels before the street port. ill post pics when we finish

 

yeah dude, i know, i found that out after i posted. i figured id just leave it up to possibly get some different point of views

 

No problem man at least you said you are sorry ! that DSM of mine is pertty reliable as they come and dont waste gas for **** I have a 2000 Explorer and 2 rx's and becuase of gas i drive the laser to and from work which is close to 100 miles round trip a day that is 36,500 miles a year divided bye 28 mpg that is 1304 gallons of gas a year at $3.17 thats $4133.68 a year in gas damn ! ! ! !

 

yeah damn, that is a very valid point. good work with the numbers

 

::: STILL IN SHOCK OVER HOW MUCH MONEY I SPEND IN GAS A YEAR :::

 

I think anything more than 100:1 is excessive. I always ran 128:1 (1 oz per gallon), and the inside of my engine looked brand new after 20k miles.
