Subject:ST165 pre mix? Date:Mon Jun 24 21:32:15 2013
Okay, I got my ST165 dirt track racer together and running! Thanks to Tom Van Beek and Alan Lyons for all the help! But now I’m working on the pre mixing.

For the past 5 years I have been using Mobile One Synthetic Racing Two Stroke oil at 32:1. Jetting was near spot on. Very little spooge, and near zero smoke when engine was warmed up. Mobile One no longer makes two stroke oil.

So I switched to Bel Ray H1R, also at 32:1. It smokes a little more, but not much. But the spooge is terrible. Literally dripping off the exhaust port.

Tom did the bottom end, and I installed a new piston and rings. Heat cycled 5 times over the course of a day. Then put 10 easy miles on it. I’m just about ready to put the hammer down and see how things go.

Is the spooge from the new oil type, and just live with it? Or, should I break in the rings more before becoming concerned?
