mini moto fuel mixture????

i have a normal chinese import 49cc mini moto and it keeps choking up and cutting out when i apply full throttle,

i run the bike on fuel ration of 25 to 1 (25ml of oil and 100ml of fuel)

is this correct or should it be somthing different.

HELP PLEASE

a gerry/tetra can only holds 5 litres, if i put in 5 llitres of fuel and 100ml of oil thats 6litres that i would have to get into a 5 litre can.

i just want to know how much oil i should use per 100ml of fuel.

i currently use 25ml of oil to 100ml of fuel.

Re: mini moto fuel mixture????

1 liter is 1000ml

you are putting WAYYY to much oil in if you are puttign 25ml to 100ml of fuel.

if you are using one of them mixxing cans that come with it they are 1000ml not 100.

you want to put in about 20-25ml of oil to 1 liter(1000ml)

Re: mini moto fuel mixture????

yea i do use 1000ml of petrol to 25ml of oil.

but if i'm mixing a full jerry can i've been told to put 5litres of petrol in and mix it with 125ml of oil.

i think that sounds reasonable.
