    Oil Ratio

    When you order your motorized bike kit the manuel says to put 16:1 mix and than 20:1, well I use 40:1 and It runs great. My first tank of gas was 40:1 mix. Should I use 20:1 or 40:1

It's intended for chainsaws and other air-cooled small engines and it only comes in packs of 2.6oz bottles to mix with one gallon of gas. A single bottle is $0.99, so I figured...
