Figured these pics are appropriate to this topic. This engine was on a boat that I bought awhile back. It was a 93 MERCURY XR6 150 with the oil injection removed. The person I bought this from was 17 and had never had a 2 stroke before. The guy he bought it from told him he should double up the oil for the first tank, so he mixed it 100:1 instead of 25:1 like he was told. The other 5 cylinders were fine with 125 compression, but #2 was a DISASTER! And this was on pre-mix so no oil injection to blame, and the carbs were in tip top shape.
