How can you tell if your motor is a 2 or 4 stroke? I went to buy oil and wasn't sure if I need 2 cycle or 4 cycle oil.
What's the difference?

the 2 cycle (2stroke) and 4 cycle (4stroke) are 2 different type motors the 2 cycle motor mixes gas and oil together to lubercate the inside of the motor ,,the 4stroke uses gas only and not a gas/oil mix
the 4 stroke motors will have a dip stick to check the oil level, there is no dip stick for a 2 stroke/cycle,,,this has nothing to do with the oil that is the lower end/unit that is a heaver type gear oil,,, Please do not run that 200hp motor till you know,,Please check the internet for more info or go to youtube.com for info |

He would also I think make sure the vro has not been abandoned. He would then have to manually mix gas and oil. 50:1 I would think. Just a heads up.
