I belive the stock ratio on that Doo is 32:1 especialy if your using the cheap oil. To add to the confussion about mix ratios, if you run a heavier mix say 20:1 or 16:1 you could squeeze out more horsepower (probably less than 1 HP). The extra oil helps the rings seal better, for maximum compression. You do risk eating more spark plugs though. Make sure to set your plug gap for that model at .18 inches. They were famous for hard starting if the gap wasn't set right.
