Thanks for the scoop on the Coleman fuel SJ. Not knowing anything about it I sort of assumed that the Coleman fuel was BETTER for the engine and THAT was why people were using it. Now I know better!

What sort of fuel / oil ratio do most folks use? 25:1 as recommended. Do they use a more oil heavy mix to break in the engine? I have a little Merc outboard that required a 25:1 fior break in and then 50:1 after that. I realize that some of these answere may be in the manual, which I don't have yet, so if they are in the manual, feel free to save your typing finges and respond......READ the manual stupid!.............regards, Paul
