Hi, I was just wondering if anyone had a consistent tvo mixture for my ted20, as my research has thrown up lots of different options?

Its a bit like asking what shade of grey is a T20 painted.
Personally I use 50:50 Petrol and Heating oil. I have heard of people using neat heating oil.

Thankyou for the reply,most people I've spoken to use 50/50, so that sounds good to me!!! A few have come up with a lot more complex concoctions!!!

If you don't want to mix yourself you can buy premixed from rye oils, who will deliver it you just have to mix a bit of petrol in to complete the mix when it arrives with you

Thanks, I've mixed some 50/50, seems to work well enough, someone I spoke to said I could cut it down to 1,3rd of petrol to 2,3rds of heating oil, I might try it, to cut down on petrol cost!

Hi all, I'm running on straight heating oil now! Bit of an experiment, seems to run better than when running on petrol!!!

I mix using the below concoction... remember to set your ignition timing based on a TVO mix, rather than petrol!
75% Kerosene
25% Petrol (E5 only)
2 Stroke Oil
