Getting rid of two stroke fuel

[gravitas]

I have a little bit (4l) of two stroke fuel/oil mix (50:1) and want to get rid of it without making a special trip to the recycling center. Can I just pour it into my truck's tank?

 

[LonelyGhost]

you'll be pushing some 'blue' for a while but it won't do much harm ...

fouls the plugs a bit too ...

so unless you just had the truck tuned, go for it.

 

[Mr Blonde]

you can use your 2 stroke oil as well as used motor oil to fertilize your lawn

You might foul the o2 sensor(s) too. Not to mention you'll throw off the fules cleaning and octane ratings. Then again if you drive a 1942 willies then who gives a fukk, you could probably piss in the tank.

If you add it a liter or 2 at a time to a relatively full tank of fuel, you won't notice any difference unless you're driving something really high performance and finicky.

if it will make my exhaust smell like real two stroke fumes then I'd be all over it......I realize this sounds VERY weird but I LOVE that smell! reminds me of dirt biking, sledding, cutting down trees and all sorts of other fun stuff

ummmmm......ok, if you say so

I've lost ALL love for the vehicle its likely going into.....its lease is up in a couple of months and provided it still runs half decent I just may piss in the tank before I bring it back

Not finicky, just a run of the mill detroit (or where ever the fuck they made it) generic North American SUV POS.


Turns out there isn't much fuel left to get rid of......was filling up the power blower this evening and must have been thinking of pussy or something and spilled a swack of it on the garage floor Cleared away anything flammable, got the fire extinguisher ready (just in case) and lit up the spill. Aside from making for quick clean up also warmed up the garage a bit

I'd put it in a FULL tank..50:1 is a high ratio anyways and should be fine. I doubt it would foul the plugs. If you think about how 4 liters at 50:1 mixed in to a 100 liter tank the ratio is closer to 1000:1.

Not quite nube, at 50:1, 4L's of two cycle oil mixes at 50:1 into 200 liters
of gas. (50L's of fuel per 1L of two cycle oil.)

Throw it in grav at 1 liter or less per tank and you shouldn't notice much
dif. One thing it will do is lube your injectors and make them much
happier. Also while doing this make sure you add a good amount of
injector cleaner at the same time to help knock down the possible carbon
buildup on your valves due to the oil in the fuel.

QM, I think you forgot that the 4 liters is at 50:1 oil to fuel so that means there is 0.08 liters of oil in the 4 liter jug so in 200 liters that is equal to 2500:1.SO you are right Ii was wrong, when I said 1000;1 (it was a quick guess) this time i grabbed the ole calc. and I get 2500:1 and its too small amount for ole Grav to worry about.

Ahh the smell of an RZ500... God I wish I was 20 again!

It was a 100-litre tank, so nube was closer thr first time, If you dilute 4 litres of 50:1 mixture with 96 litres of gasoline, the dilution factor is 25, so the new ratio is 1250:1.

Shit !! I miss read that, I was going on the premise it was just plain
50:1 oil (not mixed)

If you have a diesel then put about 1 litre per 100litres of fuel.
Gas engines with catyletic convertors and oxygen sensors do not like fouling be oil.

LOL I was close BOTH times, add another 100 liters of straight gas and Voila!!!2500:1

You can do what i do, go dump it in the used oil tank at yer local used oil tank or you can mix it with ky jelly at 5000:1 and spank till the cows come home.

KY jelly - spanking - cows
My mind is conjuring up all sorts of images. I think I've been working too hard.
