How much oil do you run?
I built a 2001 Elite 50 back in '08 that I'm bringing back to life after not having ridden it in several years. It has a 72cc Polini Corsa, Oko 28mm carb, PG long and upgear. The auto oiler was blocked off and I've always run premix. Problem is, I can't remember how much oil I was running per gallon of gas. I do remember running a little on the heavy side oil-wise per burnt_toast's recommendation. Can anyone with a similar setup chime in with what ratio they run oil to gas?
Re: How much oil do you run?
The most common is probably 32:1, which is 4oz. per gallon. Some guys may run 40:1, but 32:1 never hurts.
