2-stroke mix 1:50 vs 1:40 vs 1:25: how to choose?

Quick guide

  • 1:50 (5L + 100mL): Modern machines (2010+) with synthetic JASO FD oil
  • 1:40 (5L + 125mL): Mid-age machines, semi-synthetic oil
  • 1:25 (5L + 200mL): Pre-1990 machines, mineral oil

For 95% of 2026 users: synthetic oil + 1:50. The oil quality matters more than the ratio precision.
