Not everyone is as ditzy as you, Ditzy.
Most can follow and figure out what I'm responding to.


Not really, dummy.

"Most know you couldn't follow the oil thread way back when!

Still seem to have the same problem with reading skills, eh?"



Nice to see you coming to the aid of your turds, Johnny. Wonder if
you did the same for the rank and file in your army days.


Really? You support/respond to Harry's BS minutes after he posts. Don't
forget that most people here have real computers that can see that.
It's time for you to STFU.


I disagree. Donnie and Harrie provide the rest of us with a huge amount
of entertainment.

Ditzy must think he's ready to take over from The John. Sure looks like revolt in the ranks.

Ask your bride to review your postings. See if she approves.

Not on a '73 anything two-stroke that Ive ever seen You're better mixing 30 or 40:1 with an old outboard and use premium fuel. I've seen too many scored chainsaws and weed eaters because someone tried to stretch the limits on 50:1/ even with the finest synthetic lubricants, there's no room for error at that rate. Best to mix thicker to the engines specs, than to read some wild claim of an oil manufacturer.

My old OMC V4 75HP ran 50:1. (pint can per 6 gallons) It was early
70s.

May be a difference with water cooled engines like an outboard compared to an air oiled like a chainsaw. Beats me but I'd think that 50:1 is pushing it on any engine.
30:1 for me...

The Evinrudes I remember from the 1950s and 1960s called for a half-pint
of oil per gallon of gasolines.

Small air cooled engines seem to go from 32:1 to 50:1 but the
landscapers around here run all of them at 50:1. These are not
consumer grade machines tho.
Every outboard I have had since the 70s has run 50:1. (the OMC, a 7.5
merc and a 40 merc from 1974)

Ah, the good ol' days. Lower the leg of the little, 50's or 60's
vintage 5hp Johnson and watch the oil spill form as the un-burned oil in
the exhaust hits the water.
