What is the mix ratio for a Johnson outboard motor?
Any Johnson outboard motor built since 1964 requires a 50/1 fuel ratio. Motors built prior to that date require a 32/1 ratio, with the exception of a few fishing motors built prior to 1955 that use a 16/1 ratio.
The exact mix ratio for Cub Cadet trimmers varies, depending upon the exact model. Cub Cadet's ST 228 2-cycle trimmer model uses a mix of 2.6 fluid ounces of 2-cycle oil blended with 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline or a 50-to-1 ratio. This equates to 20 milliliters of 2-cycle oil to 1 liter of gas. The Cub Cadet BC 210, on the other hand, requires a mix ratio of 40 to 1, or 3.2 fluid ounces of 2-cycle engine oil to 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline
Gas to oil ratio is a function of the oil you are using. Mix according to what the oil says not what the manufacturer of the engine says. Those ratios could/may be the same. IF you mix 16:1 oil (do they even sell that anymore ?) at a 50:1 ratio it will destroy the engine. There will be no problems at 16:1 as the oil recommends.
I have used 100:1 Optimoil (?) when I can find it instead of the recommended 48:1 of my 2cycle. No problems.
Mix the oil in ratio the oil manufacturer says to mix.
FUELING ENGINE
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly
when refueling.
HELPFUL TIP
To obtain the correct oilmix
ratio, pour 3.2 ounces of
2--cycle synthetic oil into
one gallon of fresh gas.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be
mixed with a good quality synthetic 2-cycle
air-cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a
ratio of 40:1. Poulan/Weed Eater brand
synthetic oil is recommended.Mix gasoline and
oil at a ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by
mixing 3.2 ounces (95ml) of oil with 1 gallon (4
liters) of unleaded gasoline. DO NOT USE
automotive oil or marine oil.
