2 stroke refuelling?

Gasgas23 · Clubman B

personaly i went for the largest fuel tank i could get without making it too heavy for what i want.

You can get almost any size up to 24 litres.

I dont like mixing it at the petrol station, but a friend of mine does what you said. He carrys a small bottle of the exact amount oil then fuels it to match.

When I used to have a two storke without autolube, I would take a metal bottle with screw on cap containing two stroke oil (metal, because if I fell on it it wouldn't break). I measured how much would go into the bottle and when filling up could work out how much oil to add to the amount of petrol I just put in.

Use one of these to measure to oil, when filling up turn off fuel first,ad petrol then the correct amount of oil. Give it a good slosh about before turning fuel back on

It's ok guys that's resolved it for me, I have a tub for oil so il fill up and then put in the relevant amount of oil and give a good shake, just wanted to make sure this was the done thing really :D

Go to Tesco's and pick up a 3 pack of 100 ml bottles from the Travel, holiday section. The bottles are marked to 100ml but you can actually put in 125ml. I use them and I've had no problems, and they are cheap.

I use an old plastic Levi Roots sauce bottle. They have the same self sealing opening as a ketchup bottle. Measured amounts of water and scratch a line according to your pre-mix ratio. In my case 40:1. Once empty and dry, fill it with your oil. Make sure you mark it so it works upside down when sqirting it in the tank.

All i ever did was carry a 1l bottle of motul 710 as they have the best containers... that dont leak, fill the tank right up then just chuck a bit of oil in using the side of the bottle as a rough guide. Never had a issue this way and beats carrying all that measureing malarky
