1982 Excel III - Keeping it alive

[schmitty2000]

I have a 1982 Excel III that I absolutely love. I also have a new sled, but I love having my Excell III around for when I don't feel like riding my new sled. It actually runs pretty well, but I would like to make sure that I protect it as much as possible. My question is simple. I'm pretty sure that my sled is using oil from the resevoir. I have Amsoil Interceptor in it. To protect the engine a little bit more, would it be possible to also mix my gas with Interceptor at 80:1 or even 100:1? Like I said, I'm pretty sure that the oiler is working properly, but without putting a lot of miles on it, I can't say for sure if the oil level will go down. Besides fouling my plugs a tiny bit faster, am I risking anything else by mixing my gas slightly? Also, what ratio would you recommend. I know that Amsoil suggests 50:1, but I would assume that this would be on a sled that didn't have oil injection.
Thanks for the help.

hi matt it would be nice if you knew how much the pump was putting in but
with out that you'd be fine @ 80:1+ till you know what the pump is doing.

nice choice on oil,yor protected well.
