How Much Oil 2/stroke

[unbalanced]

Running at 70 : 1 how much oil do I put into 5 litres of fuel. I worked it out at 71.6 centilitres for the 5 litres is that right. Where can I get a calibrated jug that gives you that kind of measurement.

Thanks

Most poly jugs for fuel/oil mix are calibrated at 10 cl increments, so you just need to be just 'a touch' over the 70 cl marking, it really is close enough.

It's easier when you run at 50:1 as that works out at 100cl/Liter.

Stick in 70.....that 1.6 won't make difference, save yourself some hassle

One of the tricks I've found useful is to use an old used premix bottle (auto and farm stores carry them for chainsaws and other uses) that has two caps and a measuring reservoir attached. It's really easy to quickly measure out what you need and dump it into the fuel container.
