pocket bike help

hey guys i purchased a used 49cc pocket bike today (giovanni brand).. the guy isnt being to helpful.. sad.. but anyways im wondering where i can buy a mixing jug for the oil : gas.. and does anyone by any chance know how much of each i need? .. ive searched a bit and everything so far leads me to 25 : 1 (high octane gas to 2stroke motor oil)
does that sound right?

.. dont wanna blow it on the first day haha

you wont blow the motor that easilly, these motors can take a pretty big beatings, im doing 16500 rpm on my motor fully race motor running race fuel and its running like a champ, your bike is stock so id say use 94 octane max.. use this for your fuel mixture calculations Fuel Ratio Calculator v1.0
by the way check out gtapocketbikeriders.ca or ktoracing.ca forums to join our race league at mini indy, mosport,sutton ext.. tons of fun

im going try with a small portion of gasoline first, 2 L or so. I filled up a 20L tank full of 91 octane gas from petro, for 2 L .. i believe i should be using 40 mL of 2 stroke oil, correct me if im mistaken

okay so i got it started.. problem is it wont stay on lol .. way too much white smoke coming out the ***-end and i was only able to keep it on for maximum 10 seconds.

is it possible that the kill switch is stuck?

check for these things in this order: check if theirs spark, unplug the kill switch, clean carb! and change spark plug
