Default Polution?

Dude "Polution" we ain't got no Freak'in "Polution" ....Acid Rain, Earth Quakes, Devistating Fires that whipe out whole Communities, and Big Chested(DD) Blondes with one brain cell, we got, "Polution" is the least of our problems. But your right that Dude that told you that 2-strokes are illegal, is a Quack. Manufactures like Still, McCulluc, Ryobe, Huscavarna and a host of other Mfg's wouldn't stand for it.

bouakhobDude they are talking about the gas and oil mix you should run in your gas tank.
Learn this well My Friend and Welcome. My I suggest you read, and read, and read some more. Make your note's as to what Question you have or what you truely don't get and post'em all up at the same time and prepare for a crash (pun) coarse in PB101

Are you guys sure about 20:1? That is hella rich. You must get a lot of fouled plugs at that. Most use 25:1 for break-in (the manual says to, as well) then go leaner. I tried 50:1 for a while, and I noticed a difference in power, but the decrease in lubrication caused me to run hot, and lose power after riding for a while. Since this is no good for the engine, I have switched to 40:1, and I am happy with it. An added bonus is less mess from the unburned oil that comes out of the pipe. And just to be safe, I only burn premium gas in my stock engine and my 13:1 compression engine.
