if you run good full syn oil you can use 50;1.other semi syn oil 40;1.

Right, a good oil and 50:1ish will work...
1 gal = 128 oz. 1 qt = 32 oz.
10 gal = 1280 oz
If you want 50:1, then 1280/50 = 26. You should burn 26 oz of oil per 1280 oz (10 gal) of gas.
26/32 = .8 -- 26 oz = 80% of a quart.
If you burn exactly 1 quart of oil per tank of gas, you're running 40:1 fuelil ratio. (1280/32 = 40) 40:1 is "richer" than 50:1.
