Need gas fuel help!!!

[Jeffrey Hammond]

I need some recommendations for fuel for my Zenoah 260 PUM on my thunderboat. Nooby here. Do I take one gallon of 93 octane non-alcohol fuel and add 2 stroke oil? How much oil do I add to a gallon of gas?

 

[Dave Gilles]

standard 87 octane + 8oz of klotz super techniplate. your zenoah is basically a 2 stroke lawn mower engine. It doesnt care what you throw in it.

93 octane will make is slower.

I take 1 gallon Coleman or Crown camp light fuel and add 10 ounces of Red Line 2 stroke oil.
No nasty smell in the car

But my oil is Mercury O/B synthetic oil.

Any good 2 cycle oil and mix it at the OIL manufacturers recommendations. what ever the bottle tells you to.

after all it is a chain saw/weed eater motor.

A lot of testing has been done. For our engines 8-10 oz per gallon is the norm. I personally run 10 oz to 100 oz of fuel. Regular non ethanol unleaded or camp fuel. Running what the oil manufacturer says will burn up parts. Cylinder seal will increase with more oil. Then it becomes a matter of keeping the rod bearing alive. We are stressing these things way beyond design limits.
