Hello-

I just bought a 2000 Xplorer 400 4x4.

The injector is blocked off.

The previous owner ran BEAN OIL in the gas at a 32 to 1 ratio.

What should I mix the gas with and at what ratio to make this run right and live a long time?

It has 800 miles on it now.

I already bought the Polaris oil to mix and has no ratio on the bottle.

Any advice?

 

i would stick to the 32 to 1 mix

 

the actual ratio is 40 to 1 16oz to 5 gal gas

 

32:1 or 40:1 will be fine.32:1 is safer.

 

I would stick with the polaris oil my buddy ran a couple tanks of that bean oil through his blaster once and fouled a few plugs. I gave him a tank of my gas w/ the Po oil and it never fouled a plug he switched after that I still have the bean oil in my shed.

 

Thanks alot!

That gives me room. Now, I understand the basic formula and I wonder what the range is on a tank of gas so I can start planning how many gallons to bring to "the farm" on weekends.

Is polaris fuel additive the best for bearings, etc.?

 

if it was me id only run the polaris oil only no additives maybe once in while a little sea foam in it wont hurt any at all will help keep thing cleaned up and good running order

 

40:1 will make it run like it should 32:1 will work but............

 

You should run at 40:1 using a good synthetic. Lower ratio is not always better. Can make it run hotter

 

OK- What os "a good synthetic" that is available anywhere?

Are all two - stroke additives the same?

Why does Klotz come to mind. I love the smell of that stuff.
