If someone doesn’t use a gallon of mix per year, it doesn’t make sense to have mixed gas sitting around from year to year.
I use about 1 gal each year(at home, less at other rentals). I am fine with it. 2cycle oil has gas treatment in it.
I subscribe to Steve anyway.This was very well done.I'm not changing tho.Trufuel is what I'll stick with.
EXACTLY Mparr.
You talk about using ethanol fuel.Sorry to disagree. I think you'd be much better off with non-ethanol fuel. In my area, a handful of auto gas stations sell non-ethanol gas. It's pricey at a dollar or more extra per gallon but when you add your own 2 cycle oil to this gas, it's MUCH cheaper than buying premixed 2 cycle non-EtOH fuel. I use a tiny plastic cap from a discarded pump sprayer bottle into which I measured 19 milliliters using a cheap Harbor Freight one pound digital scale and distilled water. 19.0 grams H20 = 19.0 ml. . Being a chemist, I love the Metric system ;-) Then I marked the 19 ml level with a permanent ultra fine marker. This is enough to mix one quart of 2 cycle fuel at a time. If you need more, you could do same thing with a larger container and mix one gallon at a time. Or even bigger and mix 2 to 5 gallons at a time if you are commercial. People make mixing 2 cycle fuel into more of a challenge than it needs to be.
