kütusesegamis

Kütusesegamis refers to the process of mixing fuel with a lubricant, typically for two-stroke engines. This is essential because two-stroke engines lack a separate lubrication system like four-stroke engines. Instead, the oil is mixed directly with the fuel, and this mixture lubricates the engine's internal components as it combusts.

The correct fuel-to-oil ratio is crucial for proper engine operation and longevity. If too little oil is used, the engine can overheat and seize due to insufficient lubrication. Conversely, if too much oil is mixed, it can lead to excessive smoke, fouled spark plugs, and reduced engine power.

Different types of engines and manufacturers specify different mixing ratios, often expressed as a ratio of fuel to oil, such as 50:1 or 25:1. It is important to consult the engine's manual or the fuel/oil manufacturer's recommendations for the correct ratio. The type of lubricant used is also important; specific two-stroke engine oil should be used, as automotive oils are not designed for this application.

Commonly, unleaded gasoline is used as the base fuel. The mixing process involves carefully measuring both the fuel and the oil and then thoroughly combining them in a clean container before pouring into the fuel tank. Shaking the container or agitating the mixture helps ensure the oil is evenly dispersed. The resulting mixture is then used in the engine.
