I have a two-stroke engine that asks for 50:1 gas:oil. If i don't have the tools to make an exact ratio, is it better to be richer on the oil, or richer on the gas?

Pictures of the 1994 Nissan Altima GXE
http://www.s48.photobucket.com/albums/f225/CaffeineTripp/
I'm selling my car. A 1994 Nissan Altima GXE. Here's what's right with the car: New Alternator, New Starter (still in box), Year old Kumho Tires, Resurfaced rear drum brakes, New front rotors,
New Passenger CV Joint, New Battery.
For what's wrong with the car: Starter needs to be installed, Needs gastank.
Other replacements that should be done in time: Driver's side CV Joint.
The car has 171,000 miles on it though it runs perfectly, not even kidding. The transmission is perfect the clutch is a little troublesome, but it works better than most vehicles with 171,000 miles. It has some dents, and some rust, but not much. You can see from the pictures.
This really is a good car. It's treated me very well. Just the accident of me bottoming out (the suspension is just fine) while trying to fix the starter. $700 for the car due to the gas tank or $1,300 for car and system. Any takers?

i have a misfire in my 89 toyota supra. i didn't list all the stats last time and i had several answers which didn't seem quite right. its a 7m-ge engine, non turbo, 3.0 liter inline 6. i believe one cylinder is misfiring and i know which one it is. i just want to know what might have caused this, what should be done to fix it, and how much that will cost. thanks

I thought it was the rotors but the pedal does not shake at all. Can it be the tie rods or anything else??????????

I have only about two thousand to spend and am looking to buy a very economical vehicle, preferably a manual trans., import, 4 cylinder, front-wheel drive. Around 120,000 miles. I've bought a few cars in the past that haven't done well at all and I need this for college. The make or model doesn't matter. In any case, I'm selling the one I have too.

Had car impounded and need to transfer the registration and title to my name. The current registration is in my aunts name. If the impounders saw the previous owners name and I recently did the transfer and I have the title/ownership and current insurance is there any reason for my aunt to appear at the impound when the only thing they noticed was a name registration that was not yet transferred?

I have a Toyota Corolla with 105K miles. It started one month ago in the morning: Once in a while the car would not start on first turn. Last week it started happening more often. lights are on and there is a faint click from the front.
Starter? Alternator or something else?

My car has a cracked windshield (a stone hit it), it does not effect my driving in any sense. It's just estechically unpleasing. I have to get my car inspected this month. Do you think it will pass? Does anyone know about how much it should cost to replace?

I was carrying a plastic box past my truck when I accidently rubbed the box on my truck door as I was walking past. There was dirt on my truck and I think that is what made the actual scratches.

My Taurus could not start today. When I turned the key, I heard the crank( lasting for about 1 second), but shortly I heard some noise like "da da da da...". It sounded like coming from starter(but not 100% sure). Of course, I tried to jump it but did not work out. I am wondering what is the problem. Could it be a bad battery or bad starter(with bad gear)?

Different auto mechanics tell different milage of engine oil. Some say 3000 km and some say 4000 km. My car is 1000 cc 4 cylinder using bi-fuel i.e. Gasoline and Compressed Natural Gas. What should I look for on engine oil packing?
