[QUOTE="hwew, post: 386838, member: 1820"] Turbotodd, Thanks for getting back. I think I will try 100-1. Do you work for a dealer. You seem very knowledgeable on Yamaha's. You seem to understand these 25's and you definitely understand propping. I guess quite a few dealers including myself have a rough time understanding how the Yamaha outboards hold up to such lean conditions. I do know Evinrude tried 100-1 for a while and than decided to go back to 50-1. Is part of the reason why Yamaha can run 50-1 is that the oil got better? Another good question is should I run Yamalube 2M only? Or is Quicksilver Premium Plus 2-Cycle Outboard Oil Ok? What about yamahas ring free additive. Is it needed or does Yamalube 2M have ring free blended in the oil. I would like to get another prop and keep the Orem as a spare. It seems like your boat might be comparable to what I have what the weight of your setup? I'm thinking of a turbo hotshot. I took it out myself today and the rpm's peaked at times to 6180. When I have my daughter with me with a cooler it will normaly run between 5970 and 6040. With the 11-1/4" pitch prop. I do understand the the turbo hotshots are slightly larger in diameter.
