They sell small bottles at CTC that have all the info printed on it. It gives you the choice of different ratio and you just find the amou nt of gas you are using and you fill up the small bottle up to the corresponding mark. It is so handy to have and they are only $8.00. I always mix only a day's worth of gas for my 9.9 which I very rarely use.

I got one of those bottles a few years ago when they were $3.00. Really good investment. Trying to figure out the chainsaw 40:1, boat 50:1, another motor 100:1, weedeater 30:1, the list goes on. I used to screw up the math, no I don't worry about it, get the bottle!!!!

Get a measuring Cup

Pour in 50oz Gas

Then pour in 1 oz oil

 

Or 25oz gas

1oz oil

then 25 oz gas

This helps mix iit up a bit

Put it all in a 1 gal. gas can

Give it a good shake

And you are done!

Just use Opti-2 or Amsoil and use 100:1 for everything. ;)

easiest way to do oil mixture.

 

multiply the liters by 1000,

then divide that by your mixture.

 

EG: 4.7L x 1000 = 4700, then divide by what ever your mixture is. 4700 divided by 50= 94 ml

32 to 1 would be 146.9 ml
