Quit wringing your hands over a little extra oil!! Yamaha parts are outrageously expensive and two strokes are no longer manufactured so I for one am protecting my fleet of them the best way I know how to.
Threre are a few other scenarios I can think of as well.Įxtra lubrication will reduce overall wear and either bring down or maintain internal rotating parts temperatures in a two stroke better than a lean mixture. When your waterpump is partially blocked or old and worn and the engine is running warmer than designed yet not overheating, you will be better protected. Extra lubrication will help out the engine during periods of light detonation should that occur from a load of bad gasoline or a failing ignition component. The extra lubrication of going to 50:1 will help protect you through the inevitable overheat you will experience. Now, welcome to the real world where things happen a little differently.įact is that your engine is not made of anything different than the Johnsons and Evinrudes and will go through the same issues eventually.Īnother fact - two strokes never die of too much lubrication, period. In a perfect world and under perfect conditions your 100:1 ratio will be okay to run, that is what you want to hear? That is the world these guidelines were made up in.

I'm talking about a motor that will not sit for longer then like 2weeks at the very most if that.I will probally use it at least once to twice a week.I'm not asking if it is the right ratio as i know everyone has their opinions on that,i'm asking for anyone who has actually uses their motors full time,has never let it sit for a long peroid of time.Has anyones motor seized up at all or given them any problems at all that they know of from a 100:1 oil ratio?Thanks. My question is has anyone ever heard or experienced a motor with problems or locking up from a 100:1 oil ratio when they were using it full time?I know that johnson and evinrude changed it yrs ago from 100:1 to 50:1 because when the motors sat for a long peroid of time there wouldn't be proper lubrication sitting in the engine and would cause corrosion or the motor would seize up. Hey fellows this is not a debate of what is right and wrong it's just simply a question about a 100:1 oil ratio for a 15hp 2stroke yamaha or any smaller outboard that may call for a 100:1 oil ratio.
