Too much PS... PS is suppose to be mixed at 400:1 ratio (0.32 Ounces per 1 gallon of fuel) 11.2 Ozs max!

Too little of the 2 Cycle Oil... 2 Cycle Oil is suppose to be mixed at 128:1 (2nd Gen 1 oz per 1gallon of fuel) or 200:1 (3rd Gen 0.64 ozs of oil for 1 galon of fuel).

Not to mention PS is wiping out lubricity of the 2 cycle oil... [sm=headbang.gif]

maybe if yall used sparkplugs youd get better mpg. LOL.


you know diesel will be expensive when its cheaper to cut diesel with additives just to fill up the tank, not to get better mpg.

By the time fuel hits $5 bucks a gallon I bet you I'll be getting 23-24 MPG by then too...[sm=insomnia.gif]

I'm close to it now at 22.5 MPG...

And still only using 2 cycle oil at 128:1 ratio. (1 ounce of oil for every 1 gallon of fuel)
