Default Can't get the fuel oil mix right on the Raptor

I've tried every combination of fuel/oil mix for my Raptor and it still smokes a lot and just doesn't run right. What kind of oil are you guys using and at what ratio.

I hope your not mixing oil in your gas, like one would do with a 2 stroke motor!

I hope your joking! 4-strokes don't need a premix all you do it run straight pump gas.

No, you have to mix oil in your gas or your motor will freeze up.

Maybe I'm missing something....you are running pre-mix in your raptor?

or are you just looking for a rize out of the rest of us [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

ROFLMAO! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Gees, didn't you stop to think that maybe a four stroke would smoke if it was burning oil? Why not try a ratio of 15:1 and see what happens? What do they feed you guys in North Dakota? LOL [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Thats in 2-strokes man, 4-strokes are lubricated by the engine oil which is in a different reservour.
