	**Main downside is the only thing they did was measure Cylinder (outer) Wall, and Muffler Temperature, both with a [[Laser Thermometer]] . The procedure was through + well thought out, but no investigation on [[Engine Deposits]] [[Carbon Deposits]], or of Wear (On the Cylinder, on Valves, etc). Cut tests were alright, but more [[Project Farm]] esque jigs, or a [[Dynamometer]] test would be nice for quantification of power etc		**Main downside is the only thing they did was measure Cylinder (outer) Wall, and Muffler Temperature, both with a [[Laser Thermometer]] .

			=Impact on Air/Fuel Ratio=
			*Due to the [[Total Loss Lubrication]] , impacts in amount of Oil also directly impact the [[Air/Fuel Ratio]]
			*Thus if one doesn’t want this to cause the engine to run more lean/rich, the Carburetor will need to be adjusted
			*Some of the tests have neglected this, while comments have mentioned it
			**Further SCIENTIFIC testing of this required, but decent Community Knowledge Backing

Created Page + Added Basic Sections/Info

New page

=Basics=
*This page aims to cover the various ratios of Fuel (typically [[Ethanol Free Gasoline]] ) and [[2-Stroke Oil]] for use in [[Total Loss Lubrication]] [[2-Stroke Engines]]
*Common ratios will be covered and compared
