Well I picked up an "empty" barrell of VO and the southwick nationals, and It actually had about 2 gallons left in it ahah. So I decided to run it in my stock 50. Just wondering if this will screw anything up??

aj191 · 08-31-2009, 06:12 PM

hmmm, if i remember correctly, i wasnt supposed to run this in my minis... long time ago, i dont remember

southwickmx338 · 08-31-2009, 06:15 PM

I run it in my 85's and stuff. But I put some in my 50 just because it smells good haha

aj191 · 08-31-2009, 06:20 PM

yea i ran it in my 250s, but idk about minis, ask someone more knowledgeable haha i wish dood was still on here, he could answer you

phatfiddy · 08-31-2009, 06:24 PM

Just make sure you empty the carb and run the bike out of gas when your done.. Even though the newer stuff isnt supposed to corrode as much, its still not a bad idea to empty it out.

Itll also keep the piston/combustion chamber cleaner... less carbon build up

Enjoy the smell

lol to make your gallons last longer mix it 50/50 with 91 pump.

southwickmx338 · 08-31-2009, 06:28 PM

haha. I usually mix it 50/50 to make it last longer. It was at the Pro circuit Kawasaki's pit so It's probably the HIGH octane stuff. It came out clear so its definately more than 105 octane. VP red is 105.

yzrcr73 · 08-31-2009, 06:32 PM

def. more work on the piston for a stock 50. personally wouldnt try it

kawasakicoby125 · 08-31-2009, 06:40 PM

i wouldnt do it if i were you. if its a stock 50, it will burn ur rings up faster than a cupcake in an obease meeting. lol, seriosly tho, it wont be very good for your motor

LongMooie · 08-31-2009, 07:10 PM

i think its ok to run in a high compression motor you would have to rejet your carb i would guess
i use to run 98 octain shell in my cr250 and crf50(88Rstage)

mopitdevil · 08-31-2009, 08:32 PM

mix at 3:1, (pump gas:vp) and just check plug after a few runs to see if any jetting change.

gfleck067 · 08-31-2009, 10:11 PM

they only time i would ever run race gas would be on a 12:1 or higher motor a YFZ i had was 13.5:a comp and it didnt run worth a damn when i didnt run U4.2 from vp but a stock motor all your doin is wastin cash and risking some engine damage

same, my kx250f wont even start with pump gas, all the way up to 96 octane, and its a B to start at 98...

lilminis · 09-01-2009, 09:05 AM

i had about 5 gallons left over from my race sled and i mixed it with like a 1:2 ratio. It ran great!

up4da4nal · 09-01-2009, 09:40 AM
