skj0lsvik Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Thanks for nice answers! When I fill my spare-can with gasoline I normally fill it up with 8 litres, then I'll put about 0,4litres of oil in there. I think atleast it was 0,4. Maybe 0,5? Would this be too much oil? And yeas, the carb is cleaned Which side is the flywheel on(probably a dumb question, but oh well...)? I am buying a new plug for it, which one would suit the bike best? And then again, thanks for all the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houseape1000 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 At 50 - 1 it would be 20ml oil per Litre (1000ml) If Im right, you are putting in about 50ml per litre = 20 - 1. ( based on you putting in 400ml per 8000ml ) Its a wonder it runs at all ! A lot of folk run their bikes on about 60 - 1, which is a bit heavy on the oil, but keeps it well lubed......however, the exhaust will need cleaning regularly. I run the scorpa at 75/80 - 1 and it is fine. I don't know what others do, but I mix fuel by the litre, and have a syringe to measure the oil in.

skj0lsvik Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Weird, I really need to recalculate the Gasoline-Oil mixture then Well, I'll try again in the weekend with fresh new fuel... Sparkplugs, what to buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skj0lsvik Posted March 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Okey, the bike finally starts with new gasoline ++ The exhaust is also cleaned properly, will repack the silencer when I get some minutes to spare. But it still coughs and won't go right. Damn, starting to get tired of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
