I just picked up a 1997 bayliner 1700ls with a 120 hp force outboard does anyone know if these engines have oil injection or do you have to mix the gas and oil first? Any help would be appreciated.

If it's any help to you I have a 98 force 120 and its a 2-stroke, have to mix the oil with fuel. Its a 50:1 mix rate. Im new to the boating world myself and not sure its the same on all the forces motors but what I have read and seen they are all 2-stokes, but wait for more reply's first just to make sure.

Force never had an oil injected outboard, so you will have to premix. The ratio is 50:1
