hi all. does anyone know the correct oil petol ratio for my 2003 dt125r. i bought it the other day ,and there is no oil tank on it. will put petrol mix into tank but dont know how much oil to add. cheers motor crazy.
The oil tank is underneath the handlebars on the throttle side(Right). There should be a Metal cover screwed on, Just unscrew that and take the top off and fill it up with decent Oil
hi mate. someone who owned it before me must have removed it. i suppose the oil pump must have packed in. i dont mind putting mixed petrol in tank. saves having to buy new tank,and pump. cheers motor crazy.
NO NO NO. You will die of lung cancer! 40:1 mix is fine. 1000 ml of fuel divided by 40 gives 25. So 25 ml of oil to every litre of fuel. You can check to see if the pump works.When the engine is running pull the oil pipe off that goes to the intake manifold.If the pump works then there will be oil coming out.Presuming you put oil into the pump first!
mate read the label on a 2 stroke mix oil bottle its 20/1 you obviously dont know what your talking about, its 20/1 garaunteed, ive been riding 2 strokes for years, check with a garage if you dont beleive me
obviously you dont, just because you have a few bikes, waw am i ment to be amazed or something
i am a motorbike mechanic by trade and have owned over 50 bikes in my life age meens nothing, i also have 7 bikes at the moment but who cares they belong to me and not ones being sold on like yours
the point is its 20/1 for a 2 stroke mixture
face the facts mate
google it and see how very wrong you are
anyone else type in google
what is the ratio for a 2 stroke engine mixture and lets find out how much gixergav really makes out he knows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20:1 is 20 parts petrol to 1 part oil.Way way to rich 40:1 is 40 parts petrol to 1 part oil. Much leaner
Even a track 350 lc would need 30:1 at most
The ratio for the 2 stroke engine mixture obviously varies dont it.Stock,big bored,high compression,Single ring,skirted,crank stroke, all play a determining factor and no variables are the same
Trust me son dont play the smartass.Probably owned over fifty bikes cos they all got carboned up?
As you can see using a 20:1 mix means using 250 ml of oil to 5 litres of fuel.Are you real? 40:1 is fine for a road going dt.Anymore will cause problems of plug fouling and black oily gungy crap blown all over the mudguard/numberplate.
Guys a ****.Hes the reason i dont take my bikes to a bike shop.I fix it myself because i know more than they do and i know that i will do the job right.Search the net all you like for pre mix ratios, you will find i'm right.I take its that why your not going to argue your case anymore right? You tell people they dont know what there on about when you haven't a clue yourself.If you want to **** your bike up then go ahead.Dont advise others to do the same The pictures of my bikes are under the topic Other Pics.So not strictly posted on the DT board. I've been messing with yam strokers for 13 years now.Having 600+cc bikes should show that i dont need to relive my youth.Get a manual and get learning kid Oh and fuel capacity is 9.5-10L
I dont mind people putting ideas and thoughts across but it winds me up when someone thinks they know it all and will argue with you even though you know your right.I ****ed me ex missus off for the same reason! Sometimes you will learn something new.I sit and listen to more experienced folk.Its the best way to learn
whats with the attitude bykerbaz, what have i done to you to be so offended? what is it because i asked you why you are charging people £10 for helping each other because there is no reason apart from that
im shocked that you are trying to convince other members to give you the nudge to boot me off this site
You wont get booted if you arent being the funny ****.Ignorance and attitude gets ya nowhere.If you want help with the bike then ask and you shall receive.You think you can help someone out? Great , but sometimes your info might be wrong.No biggee is it? I get facts and figures muddled up in my 2 stroke smogged brain too.Dont think i sat down with the Yamaha design team when they made the DT either.I dont know everything about 'em
