How do you mix Jet Ski fuel?
Most Jet Skis have a mixed oil to gas ration of 50:1. If you have an oil injection system, you don’t have to worry about mixing the gas before you put it in. But if you don’t have an injector, or if it breaks, the standard ratio is 50:1, or 2.5 ounces of Jet Ski 2 stroke oil to one gallon of fuel.
What kind of oil goes in a Yamaha Jet Ski 4 stroke?
The engine in your Yamaha WaveRunner is vastly different from your automotive engine; so avoid regular automotive engine oils. Use a motor oil specifically formulated for the rigors of the marine environment, like Yamalube 4W for four-stroke WaveRunners, and Yamalube 2W for two-stroke WaveRunners.
What is a 50 to 1 oil to gas ratio?
You want to mix 2.6 ounces of oil to one gallon of gasoline for a 50:1 mixture. If you’re mixing up two gallons of gasoline you will have to mix 5.2 ounces of oil to two gallons of gasoline for a 50:1 mixture.
What oil should I use in my Yamaha WaveRunner?
Yamaha recommends using YamaLube 4W oils, but alternatively you can use other types of oil if they meet the manufacturer’s recommendations. The most commonly used WaveRunner oil is the 10W-30 (API: SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ), which works in all Yamaha WaveRunners.
Can I use any 2-stroke oil in my jet ski?
Two-stroke jet skis require NMMA certified TC-W3 2-stroke oils. It’s highly recommended to use only marine oils in your jet ski, as these types of oils contain corrosion inhibitor additives. As jet ski engines work in a wet environment, these additives protect your engine.

How much gas does it take to run a WaveRunner?
The rule of thumb is that higher performance requires more gas, so this means the entry level WaveRunners use around 3-8 gallons, while the most powerful supercharged WaveRunners can use 4-22 gallons of gas per hour. But again, these numbers depend on many factors like your speed, riding style, or even the weather conditions.
How many times has a Yamaha Wave Runner blown up?
I have a Yamaha wave runner, GP1200R. It blew up on me two years ago and since then has blown up three more times. It is currently at the shop and the #3 has no compression. It was rebuilt two times and this last time a factory rebuild was installed.
Which is better Yamaha WaveRunner or Yamaha FX Cruiser?
The only exception in the Recreation category is the Yamaha FX Cruiser HO, as this model has a larger, 1812cc (non-supercharged) engine. Thanks to the bigger displacement, you can expect better performance (180 HP) and higher fuel consumption as well on this model.
