Using Amzoil in an older 2-cycle
I know that the ancient engines recommended using a quart of 30 weight
engine oil to gallons of gas, which was primitive, then with 2-cycle oils the recommended mix ratio went from 24 to 50 to one, Now the synthetics are going up to 100:1 ratios and for a modern 2 cycle I think that's OK, but I'm not sure about the designs of the 70's. My brother is an Amzoil dealer and he things it's the greatest thing since malted milk, and I like synthetic 2 cycle oil, but I'm wondering about the recommended mix ratio. personally I think 100:1 is a bit thin. Anyone have any thoughts? |
