Hey, I'm going to get a 98 Banshee and I was wondering what you guys use to mix the oil and gas into, and what is the best Mix ratio?

 

Get a ratio rite so its right on every time...I run Yamalube R 32:1 and have never had a problem.

 

Same here.

 

Me three.

 

I mix at 32:1 using Bel-Ray synthetic H1R oil

 

If you plan to mix 32:1 I have a suggestion to help make it easy. Buy a 5gal gas can. Put 4 gallons of gas into the gas can. Buy your oil in 16oz bottles. Maxima castor927 is a very good oil and is sold in 16oz bottles. Poor all 16oz of your oil into the 4gals of gas then shake the jug until you feel it is mixed. Another way would be to put the oil in the jug first then add the gas, that would help to mix it up. I guess what I'm saying is it is easier to buy small containers of oil that are the correct ounces you need that buying big containers of oil and having to measure it out everytime.

 

What I do is use a 7 gallon container that actually holds about 7.75 gallons and dump in 32 oz of oil for pretty close to a 32:1 mix. If I'm using smaller containers I use a ratio rite but remember that any gas container will hold a good bit more than what it's rated at. Some containers have a line to show you where the rated capacity is. If you don't have that go to the gas pump, put in 1 gallon, mark it, another gallon and mark it and so on....
