    Well for what ever it is worth I paid $38 a gallon for this stuff, and my 104 year old Evinrude liked it at 40ish :1 ratio, so that is what prompted me to buy more..

    Thanks for the info

    What was that motor’s factory recommended ratio?

    My Evinrude???? probably 8:1, but there are many mitigating factors as to WHY I run what I run.Like the fact I have completely rebuilt it with new bushings everywhere, all new shafts and the tolerances are much closer than original which I feel allows me to run like this..
