Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between 40:1 and 50:1 ratios?

40:1 has more oil (2.5%) than 50:1 (2.0%). Older engines typically need richer oil mixtures (more oil) while modern engines with better lubrication can use leaner mixtures.

Can I use the same ratio for all two-stroke engines?

No, always check your engine manufacturer's specifications. Using too little oil can cause engine damage, while too much can cause spark plug fouling and excess smoke.

Should I measure by volume or weight?

Ratios are typically by volume. Use a proper measuring container rather than estimating to ensure accuracy and engine protection.

Formulas & Assumptions

• Oil Required (ml) = Gasoline (L) × 1000 ÷ Ratio Number
• Oil Required (fl oz) = Gasoline (gal) × 128 ÷ Ratio Number
• Ratio Percentage = (1 ÷ Ratio Number) × 100
• 1 US gallon = 128 US fluid ounces
• 1 liter = 1000 milliliters
