Subject: RE: Running outboard out of oil


I premix fuel on my bike,quad, and boat. Thing is were talking max 4gallon tank on my boat. Its easy to keep mixing 4 gallons at a time. How about 30 or 40 gallons. I guess you would just have to make a giant ratio right and keep track of how many gallons go into the tank. Easier said than done... I sold my honda 4stroke that was absolutly unreal for trolling,fuel consumption, low rpm noise, for a yamaha 2smoke. I like the idea that if it blows up on me, i can fix it in my garage with pretty simple tools and half the cost in parts. I guess i have to admit i am THEE 2smoke advocate but reason being when those 4strokes go....THEY GO......They also act as a secondary boat anchor with their weight. Keep in mind on ur 2smokes the lower end is also lubricated as well by the fuel. Obviously not anywhere near the amount of moving parts but still a good amount of bearings as well. We also can thank our friends putting ethonal in the gas these days so dont forget ur startron!!! As mentioned, start with a compression test....
