Engine oil – gasoline mixing
procedure
For quantities of engine oil and gasoline to
be pre-mixed, refer to table in previous
page.
 Do not use other than two stroke engine
oil with specified grade, or the engine
may be damaged.
 Do not use fuel prepared in other than
specified mixing ratio.
- Lack of engine oil can cause severe
engine trouble such as piston seizure.
- Excess of engine oil can shorten spark
plug life, and/or cause increase of nox-
ious exhaust.
 When portable fuel tank is used for
operation of outboard motor(s):
1 Pour engine oil into fuel tank, and then,
gasoline.
2 Put cap on the tank, and close tightly.
3 Close air vent plug tightly.
Loose cap or air vent plug can cause leak
of fuel during shaking the tank.
4 Shake the tank to mix engine oil and
gasoline well and even.
 When fuel tank built in the boat is
used for operation of outboard
motor(s):
1 Prepare separate fuel container for pre-
mixing.
2 Pour engine oil into fuel container, and
then, gasoline.
3 Put cap on the container, and close
tightly.
4 Shake the container to mix engine oil
and gasoline well and even.
5 Pour the mixture into fuel tank.
Notes
 It is recommended to pre-mix by using
separate fuel container. Attempting to
pre-mix in the fuel tank built-in the boat
can make the mixture uneven.
 If built-in fuel tank is used for mixing,
pour engine oil into the tank little by little
while putting gasoline into the tank.
