[QUOTE="GYPSY400, post: 468859, member: 8599"] I'd have no problem trolling an engine at 100:1 with good oil.. I'd often thought about doing the same myself for down rigging lake trout. As long as you have suffient time to get the engine back on 50:1 before revving up. You could actually rig your fuel line with a 3 way valve near the engine so you could just turn it rather than swap hoses. Some Ski-doo engines actually run NO oil at idle as the engineers found there was enough lube in the fuel alone. Sent from my SM-G903W using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
