Just wondering the different fuel oil mix people run. I usually run mine a tad rich for peace of mind.

I run ams dominator about 40 to 1. like I said I run mine a little rich. I don't know if it helps prolong the life of the motor to run it rich but I would think it would

klotz beanoil (or however they spell it) mixed at 1:37.85
I know, that sounds like a strange number but it allows me to put a 200 ML bottle of oil in a 2 gallon can or a 350 ML or oil in my almost empty tank
oh, and that oil smells GOOD
