I was wondering what you guys mix you gas at?????? they say in the mannual 20:1 I'm using Ams oil interceptor and tryed 20 to rich then 32 then 40 it seems okay but i'm still thinking a higher ratio.

I was chuckling to myself for a whole day after I first read that myself. I may have to borrow that saying for a while.

lol. it is funny. i cant help it. Fabs's right...... but man its funny. Post #4, lol.

anyway if u r using AMS OIL mix it 50:1 !!!!!!!! thats what it is made for, it will be fine. the oil is far better then back in the 80's when 20:1 was recommended.

I can't tell you how good Klotz smells.. I love it.. I have a case of Super M or I'd think about switching. The Maxima Super M smells okay.. but I mix my fuel with the Groovy Grape additive so it smells much better.. Like Napa Valley in summer.. :-)

You are right.. The bottle is old. I keep all of my fluids and parts in a milkcrate. Everything that's been in that milkcrate looks like that.

They have a lot more smells now than they used to. That atomic apple looks good..

i was running my tecates at 40:1 with golden spectro but after tearing the engines down for repair and seeing all the crap left behind started running 50:1 I wouldnt recomend that with a conventional oil but you did say you were using amsoil. fyi too much oil causes a lean fuel to air condition and burns pistons
