50:1.<br /><br />Watch the head temperature and water flow, when you start it.

Re: Force Doubts

You can just run a pint to 5 gallons to start, as a little extra oil is good if its been sitting. Then 50-1, which is a pint to 6 gallons. Or 14 ounces to 5 gallons, which is what I do

Not so popular up here either, but I have no problem with my 88 125 after a little work.

Re: Force Doubts

Sorry, I meant not so popular...<br />Thanks for the replies!.<br />I´ve prepared the mixture. Anyways, it didn´t start. Apparently there is no el. current in the coils. <br /><br />In the same assy frame of the coils (3 coils) there are another two blue squares (No idea what are they) They are getting current, but theres nothing coming out of them to the coils... we will continue checking that issue today. Its crancking fine though.<br /><br />Oh! another doubt: theres is this gearbox actuator wich, in neutral, has some kind of lock that avoid the throtle to move. Does this means that I wont be able to accelerate the motor in neutral??<br /><br />Thanks for the help. <br />Have a nice day

Re: Force Doubts

You can pull out on the shifter/throttle lever about 3/4 inches and push forward on it. This will allow you to fast idle the engine. Depending on how the cable is adjusted you may not want to run it as fast as it will go without being in gear. Also remember the choke is actuated by pushing in the ignition key.Good Luck!

Re: Force Doubts
