I'm pretty sure those late model (looks like an 80's model) Yamahas run a 100:1 mix ratio (triple check that though...I could be wrong). If it's running to rich, it will get oiled up whilst its running on low revs and stall...they also run pretty rough.
P.S. Sometimes it's not a bad thing to put a little bit extra oil in with the older motors...just don't over do it.
Hi Man,

Thanks for the reply. The motor is oil injected actually but i don't know if the oil injection works properly.
Oh well, another project for me to tackle I guess. On the bright side, I can learn one thing or two along the way!
Cheers
