Posted by: zeppelinrider---------------------

Hey guys. Im pretty new to the sport and just got a CR125. The guys at the shop told me that the ratio for it would be 32:1. Can someone help me and tell me like how much i mix per galloon cause i really dont know. Sorry for the dumb question.

The Maxima mixing cup is nice too. It comes with a screw lid.

Hmmm.

128 ounces in a gallon......

128 divided by 32......

4!

4 ounces per gallon!

Haha. Thanx man. Im stupid. I thought the 32:1 was for the whole tank not one gallon.

Well , you'll need 1 tank of oil for every 32 tanks of fuel.

well i use spectro oil and it is mesured out to mix perfectly with five gallons of gas. so get a five gallon gas tank and fill it up exactly w/ five gallons and then dump in your oil

Depends on how much is in the spectro oil bottle. You can get different size bottles. I use Honda HP2 and I think its a quart and if i put the whole bottle in 4 gallons then its 32:1 So read how much is in the bottle before you just start dumping bottles in with full 5 gallons. I think if i put my quart in 5 gallons it puts the mixture at like 40:1 so just be careful.

I also like the maxima mixing cup as you can screw the lid on and store it in your toolbox and not have it leak all over the place.
