szewczyd Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Just picked up a banshee and he said he does 2 ounces of oil to every gallon of gas which is 64:1. I have owned banshees before and usually ran like 32:1 or 40:1 roughly. Why would he run so little oil? It does puff blue. What should I do?

LiftdT4R Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I'd run 32:1, there are some people that like to run it lean like 50:1. I have heard that it will make a bit more power with less oil, but I dont think its worth chanicing it especially if your just playing around. Run the 32:1.

black sunshine Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 What type of oil was he using? 40:1 or 32:1 are pretty popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasGDub Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Really depends on what kind of oil he was running. If it was typical oil, that seems lean on oil. Run what brand you like at the ratio your use to and make adjustments based on performance. 32:1 is a good safe place to start. I run 50:1, but it is Belray MC1.
