Correct oil mix
I can't remember if it should be 25:1 or 40:1 mix for my 2 stroke 6hp Yamaha, anyone know ?
Many thanks

What model/year is it? Those mixes sound more suitable for a Seagull!

OK - I'm ONLY GUESSING, but I'd have thought 100:1? Worst case 50:1...

Should be 100:1 for that model if using Yamalube, otherwise 50:1 on a TCW-3 spec'd oil would be fine. No need to go more oil than that.
