    What mix ratio should I be running in my mid 90's 25 HP mariner? I have been running 50 to 1 and just wanted to know if that is right.

    It's a Synthetic Blend

    I was using Quicksilver

    But a guy sold me a Couple of Gallons Motor seems to Run Smoother than Quicksilver Less Smoke Too ...


    See Video Barley any smoke ;-)

    It is a mid 90's mariner 25. I have run penzoil prem plus recently and like it, but I am having problems that I do not think are oil related but I wanted to make sure my mix was right to eliminate that.
