[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 457235, member: 3278"] [size=5]No, OMC did not jet for a thinner mix. The 100:1 engines were basically forced upon engineering as a marketing ploy to gain market share. The 100:1 mixture was rolled back to a 50:1 mixture do to corrosion issues that started surfacing during off-season storage. Dealer bulletins were sent out to pull the 100:1 stickers off engines and notify customers to change to a 50:1 mixture. As I said in an earlier post there were no changes to the exhaust housing to allow for a better exhaust flow. Changes were made to go to a different trim system and lower pan system. You would do well to quit putting your guesses down in writing as fact should someone take your word for it and make changes to their engine based on a guess rather than fact. [/size] [/QUOTE]
