What do you guys run through your kits? I run 40:1 ...so pretty rich but rich is better than lean..a spark plug is cheaper than a new engine. does anyone do 32:1, 35:1, 50:1? What's the best way to run without seizing the engine, not too hot, not too lean? and making the engine last. any suggestions?

Lots to read on that subject > http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner...tio&gsc.page=1

You'll get many opinions but most of us will agree that the kit instructions of 16:1 is too much oil. You'll here everything from 20 to 100:1 used by members here. Everyone will swear that their choice is the best.
