i have a ratio-rite oil measure and everybody said to run my motor at 50.1 oil mixture and i was running a 32.1 oil mixture before i blew it up and they said to run it at 50.1 to brake the motor in but 50.1 oil ratio is are appears to be less oil than 32.1 am i correct are am i seeing things

sure are

i run all my 2 strokes at 28-1 break in and 32-1 raceing

also i dont run synthectic oils during break in as they do not seat the rings as well

good luck man

ALWAYS use the same oil ratio! doesn't matter if you're breaking it in or doing dyno pulls with it. if you change your ratio you need to rejet. your quad didn't blow up because of the oil ratio... amsoil makes a 100:1 oil for 2 strokes, and some guys on E2S found that they'll run to a ratio of 8:1 before plug fouling becomes an issue. i've always used 50:1 and never had an oil related problem, just make sure the clearances are set to the piston manufacturers specs, jet it properly, and always let it warm up.

what he is asking is a 50:1 mix less oil than a 32:1 mix. Thats the way it seems on the ratiorite jug

I switched from 40:1 to 32:1 after reading this:
