Amsoil Saber Mix Ratio

[Deluge1]

Check this out. There are world class 2 cycle motorcycle builders that only oil the rod ends - crank bearings opon assembly. The rings- jug are bone dry. They say when the things are oiled up- first time the engine lights off- its glazed and will never be seated or hold compression as well as a dry assembly. They have recorded the compression readings to back this up. I have assembled top ends with the rings dry many times on 2 stroke dirt bikes. I did not record the compression readings.- They ran better- i swear!! Next engine build on the cats- or whatever, it gonna be bone dry- just a bit of premix on the rod ends-mains. --

I've always wondered about that! Makes sense, as well. I'll try that on my next build.

I am into the Maxama 927. Started out in the hobby @ 25 to 1. After learning the engines better, I now run 32 to one. 1 - one oz of oil to 16 oz of gas. I mix small quanites, enough for about 2 tanks in a xb. Less oil will give the engine more fuel, regardless of needle settings. build more power, but ya gotta be careful not to run the needles too lean.

Same here. 32:1.

I never ventured less than 32:1.
