Bozeman Bob 80 Posted July 23, 2018 No , that is pretty much the standard mixture rate for all 2 "smokes." The problem is if you decide to lean out the jets you run the risk of burning a hole in the piston. Better to be a bit rich than lean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WickedGood 6 Posted July 26, 2018 Back when Mariners were sold in the USA, I had a dealership. The small Mariners were actually made by Yamaha and the larger Mariners were Made by Mercury. The Gasoline contained LEAD and No Alcohol. the 2 stroke mix was 50:1 and worked well. Sines the crazy Kaliforinas removed the Lead and added 10 to 15 % Alcohol you need to compensate for the ****ty gas by running a 40:1 Oil mix or even 30:1 if your in high altitude ie: Not at Se leavel as the O2 Percentage that is calculated for proper combustion diminished.
