I have a 1995 Scrambler 400 2 stroke.... I have never had a 2 stoke before... Do I need to mix the oil myself or does this have a oil pump ? I never have even looked at it enough to see ... I just bought it and it is time to put some gas in it ....


Thanks

 

It has an injection system if it hasnt been done away with.You fill it in the front nose piece

 

I also have a 95. I have the tank (in the hood), but it was disconnected prior to my ownership. You might want to ask the previous owner how it's set up. Currently I'm mixing 40:1, but a lot of people like to run them at 32:1 if you premix.

 

There is no tank under the "hood" or plastic center nose piece. They have a round thick sticker carbon graphite looking thing over the round hole. The only tank I see is on the side and I believe that is the over flow for the radiator...

I have a few more quick questions ... What is the normal and max coolant/engine temps I should run it at? I bought a Trail Tech computer and it shows the temp. Right now being around 20 degrees outside it will idle at around 155 F and run at about 140F Is this ok?

Also what is the easiest way to measure for pre-mixing?

Thanks

 

just buy a quart and it usually has a measuring window on the side of it

 

On the oil you need a RatioRite mixing cup and you need to run 40:1 mix

 

140-155 is a great temparture!

on gas i have seen mine creep up to 185-190.

im on alky now and i never go over 140
