oil mixture
The mixture should be 50:1, 50 litres of gas to one litre of oil.

Here's a site that I use a lot when mixing different sized gas cans and oil/gas ratios for the outboard, chainsaw, etc.....

50/1
It really doesn't matter the make of motor but most are 50/1 and at that ratio the motor will last more than 20 years. At 100/1 like yamaha recommmends for their engines the live will be half that. But they smoke less BIG DEAL they last longer.

Re: 50/1
Error on the side of caution.You may go through a plug or 2 ,but to burn a motor up is a bad deal.Go heavy on the oil.mikemicropterus wrote:It really doesn't matter the make of motor but most are 50/1 and at that ratio the motor will last more than 20 years.
