.hell yeah!   ( bit off topic i know but )  not putting them down but how many have been land base fish somewhere and jet ski decides to mosey over just to be a pain.Angry...surely those little motor,s pushing a jet unit cant be that  fuel efficient ..i know any jet unit requires allot of engine power therefor must use bit of fuel also...... I stand corrected if im wrong!]]> Sun, 17 Aug 2008 09:40:42 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31769&PID=445848&title=two-stroke-outboards#445848 <![CDATA[Two stroke outboards : I hope the jet ski people understand...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31769&PID=445841&title=two-stroke-outboards#445841 Author: Husky

personally id like a 4 stroke my self, purely for fuel efficiency but like many others finances don't allow it, so we make do with what we have in the meantime like many engines 2 and 4stk im sure a well maintained engines isn't that much of problem... as formtool posted.. could be a another corporate marketing exerciser.. who knows what gos through clowns minds..

I think this might end up a bit of a storm in a tea cup, when California banned 2 stroke dirt bikes everyone thought that this was the end of 2 strokes due to California being one of the biggest markets. This has proved to be wrong even with the advent of hi-tec 4 strokes.

The new generation of 2 strokes have come along way from seagulls, they have a very low pollution foot print, either way we are going to hang something on the back of our boats that will pollute to some degree or another.
This has come from one company grinding it's axe this week. Next week it will be some other issue.

What about all the trees that were axed and chemicals produced for ink to print this crap? not to mention the petrol burned for distrubution.

Nah it doesn't add up. The oil DOES add to the pollutants and there is going to be a higher particulate count from a blue smoke errrr I mean a two stroke, but it wont be that high. Especially if you compare a modern 4 stroke to an injected 2 stroke. Even with a carburreted 2 stroke, at normal running speed and temp you dont see any smoke because the engine is burning the oil more effectively. If you took a worse case of a 2 stroke starting up cold vs a warm 4 stroke then yeah you would be approaching that - especially if it was an old seagull running on pre mix 20:1 SAE 30 - old 2 strokes had terrible scavenging and a lot of unburnt fuel and oil went out the pipe - no autolube back then baby. When was the last time you ever fouled a plug on a modern 2 stroke? Not managed that in 12 years myself. Those are trumped up figures IMO - I would like to see how they arrived at them that's for sure.]]> Sat, 16 Aug 2008 22:29:36 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31769&PID=445779&title=two-stroke-outboards#445779 <![CDATA[Two stroke outboards : fart tax didnt take off so they...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31769&PID=445752&title=two-stroke-outboards#445752 Author: Carbine
