I put in a little less than 16 ounces of Xcel 2 stroke in the tank It says that it is good for injection and pre-mixing Is this stuff any good or should I use some other brand?

tcw3 is safe for fuel injection. I use premix of 1 oz per gallon of gas. I have my OMP diabled, actually used block off plates and plug the injector lines.

thats the same thing i did. i use either valvoline or the wal-mart 5gal jug for $5. i use about 16 oz. per tank, unless i know i will be driving "spotry" then its a little more. basically a 1oz. per gallon is a 100:1 ratio. most weed eaters use a 50:1 ratio. its a pittle ritcher.

Damn!! You guys are mixing in a lot of oil. What ratio are you shooting for 60:1?? I was instructed by pettit racing to mix 4oz per tankful of their Protek premix. 6oz when I am racing.



When I used Amsoil premix I did the same. When I tried to run 8oz per tankful I was fouling plugs and my car was breaking up real bad at high RPM's.
