Fuel - Oil Ratio Mixture Question
#5
There are 3 "1/3" pints to a pint. 2 pints per quart. 4 quarts per gallon. 8 pints or(3X8 or 24 "1/3" pints per gallon). So each 1/3 pint is one 24th of a gallon or one in 24 - 1:24 - so, if you want the motor to run oil rich do a 1:20(better for the motor but worse for the environment) if you want it oil lean, a 1:30(runs cleaner but is not as lubricated). When I winterize my motors I run a very high oil to gas ratio to lube it up real good for storage. I was told this would work well for two stroke engines when I was younger and it seems to have for me so far.

What kind of motor and what year is it ?
