Been testing Oil

**suede** · 09-26-2008, 01:50 PM

My biggest difference was in my old 83 YZ 490, that old thing runs a ton better, lots cooler, and starts like a champ when its ran for awile... I have added as much as a ratio of 36:1 and that seems to be about right, this stuff is amazing........

Took my car out today to BEEVILLE TX, about 200 miles from me, i was cruising at about 75mph and i got about 23mpg!!!about a 3mpg than before..i thought it would have better results, but i have only gone through like 3 tanks..maybe a couple more tanks and it will be better..

Man a double digit percentage increase isn't all that bad now....any noticeable difference in idle smoothness/acceleration?

I am going to try a little experiment. I tried the outboard oil with good results. I did not check the milage or anything, but I know when my cars are running better, especially the Goat. I have some Lucas remaining, about a gallon, and I going to try a 50-50 mixture of outboard oil and Lucas at the next fill up. If the results do not change, then I will change the ratio to say 75-25 and continue to experiment. I will let you guys know the results.

actually yea...the idle is alot smoother..but yea overall seems alot better...and alot cheaper than adding all theses "fuel injecter" cleaners!!1

I assume it is a 2 stroke motor? I know diddly about Yamahammers...

**suede** · 09-29-2008, 12:23 PM

Correcto... was just seeing if anyone would catch it,

**Sarge** · 09-29-2008, 01:33 PM

Well 36:1 is a tad rich for the 4 strokes

**suede** · 09-29-2008, 01:34 PM

that was the part i figgured most would catch....

your running 36:1, isn't that a bit too rich? if I go any more than 40:1 in my kaw it starts fouling the plug quick........could you imagine the power output of a 5.7 or 6.0 two stroke with full reed valve and tuned exhaust.... the thought of the exhaust tone it would make kinda gives me a chubby

yea i got both a kawasaki200 and a Yamaha 490, they both are tricked out and snappy, the 200 isnt fast its just fun to ride, i paid 300 bucks for it put on a fmf pipe, boysen reeds, pro taper bar and grips, ASV levers, smaller front sprocket, and paper type airfileter. Its just comfortable... but i run it at 36:1

The YZ on the other hand, i would like to see the man that could truely push that bike..... its scary fast.... Reeds, filter, pipe and silencer, bored 2x and added a lil stroke to it to up the compression, oh and we run aviation gas in it at 26:1, On pavement, at 65 to 70, sitting at the bottom of third (it only has four but will hit 107), if you just open the throttle the front end will just rise off the ground, just nice and easy....thats when you realize your haulin ass ... on an old bike.... on one wheel....

look at mercury marine and the 3.2 liter motas
300 hp from the factory
and there are some boys ithat are getting 370 hp out of the yamaha outboards

I've never had the pleasure to hear one run yet......but I have been upclose to a 500cc two stroke gp bike.... oh man they are sweet and wicked at the same time

**suede** · 09-30-2008, 10:19 AM

see thats with the YZ Its had the jug punched out 2x, which is pushing well over 500 cc's Its so loud, just imaging a deep sounding single cylinder 2 stroke.....

**mrr23** · 09-30-2008, 05:11 PM

update on the wife's car. i've seen an increase of 25 miles per tank. tank is 15 gallon. so .6 per mile increase and slightly smoother running.

I have been trying to run 1oz per 4 gallons of fuel lately...just to see if it would work better...but i noticed that sticking with the 1oz per 5gallons works much better!!!!so that ratio is probly the best so stick with it..1oz of the 2stoke oil per 5 gallons of fuel...

**Sarge** · 09-30-2008, 07:06 PM

I have found the 1oz to 5 gallons is the happy spot for most GM V8's....

**iam_dale** · 10-01-2008, 02:53 PM

One more update....after 4 or 5 tanks of doing this....I have to struggle to hear my fuel pump now!! The damn thing is almost ridiculously quiet!!

Mine is dead quiet. I can't even hear mine without any interior in. I used to hear it plain as day. I've been using fuel lube for about 2 years now.
