I am calculating my gas to oil ratio on my 600 based on yesterday's ride.Here is what I got.I used approx. 19 liters of fuel and 12 oz. of oil.What is my ratio.I figured 68 :1..am I right.If so I am to rich with oil.My gas mileage was only about 8.6 mpg (not what I like)
Hey hey hey, liters and oz together ????????????? No way...LOL
Pick a measuring system.....
Sorry I have to give you a hard time since I had to learn all over again when I moved up here.....
I think you should be 1 tank of gas 1 quart of oil.....If I'm not mistaken

12 0z is equal to 340 ml as per my measuring cup. The oil cable is set at 20 mm also.That I had this dialed in last year as per daman,but it could of been with the SRX instead.I'll figure it out.

i got 55.8:1 with your #s blue, that would make it slightly lean on oil not rich
someone else chime in, don't know if i figured right
19litersx1000=19000ml
19000ml/340ml=55.8

I read some of daman's posts.The wider the gap =less oil.Guess I'll go back to spec to start off and monitor again.

aren't we striving for a 50:1 ratio.So if I pull out cable to 23 mm,you say I will be to lean.....

yes
50 parts gas to one part oil
so right now @ 55.8 parts gas to one part oil you are already a little lean on oil

I got 53:1 using my calculator,but anyway yea your in the sweet spot dont touch a thing.
you want to use 1 qt of oil per tank of fuel

i had it mixed up in my brain staggs65.Your right,I was thinking wrong here.Daman I`ll go with the flow then,If I remember correctly we did this together last year..just checking anyways.When there is alittle more snow for me to ride the SRX,I will be checking the ratio there for sure.Wait for my call..lolllll
I am off to the River now,later guys.
