Opps....so i am running the second tank of gas throught my break in period at 25:1 ratio (i have the OMC 115 turbo jet) i messed up with the second tank and mixed a 20:1 ratio instead...im pretty sure its not that big of deal since its better to error on the more oil side of things vs more gas. does anyone know if i really need to drain 16 gallons of gas....or will i be good to go? this is my last tank at break in then i switch back to 50:1. THANKS!

Run it for a little while and add a gallon of fresh gas. You only have 21 ounces more than you should in 16 gallons. Or just see if it runs ok and let it go.

Yep,It should run fine but maybe a little more smoke....run it out and switch back to the 50:1 mix...No worries...;)
