How to mix two stroke oil and petrol?

In our younger days, we used to get a small pouch of 2T oil at the petrol pump and add it straight to the container. Always wash your hands nicely with soap after doing this, and if you swallow any fumes by mistake, drink warm water or warm milk to soothe your throat.

I actually use a simple ratio calculator app on my phone to get the numbers perfect. Just input your petrol quantity and the target ratio, and it tells you the exact milliliters of oil to add. Saves you the mental math totally!

Don't worry, it is not as complicated as it sounds. My late husband used to run our old Chetak scooter on a simple 2% mix for decades without any issues. Just keep a steady hand and do it slowly, you will get used to it.

My back aches just thinking about bending over the lawnmower to mix this stuff. I keep a pre-mixed bottle ready in the garage so I don't have to do the calculation every weekend. Just buy a cheap measuring jug and save your energy.

Yes, just use 20ml of 2T oil per litre of petrol for a standard 50:1 ratio. Shake it well before use.

Man, reading about petrol ratios at 2 AM is making my brain spin. Just make sure you don't accidentally drink the fuel thinking it's your black coffee. Keep the ratio around 40:1 and make sure to mix it properly, unlike my sleep schedule.
