Simply grab a piece of white notebook or printer paper and put a few drops of the gas in question on the paper. If it evaporates with no residue, then it is pure gas. If it evaporates and leaves a little oil, well then there is oil in it. You might put a couple of drops of gasoline you know is pure next to the drops in question to use as a reference.
Look on the oil container and the engine that you want to use it in. The engine will tell you what ratio to mix the oil and gas at. The container of oil will tell you what amount of gas should be mixed with it. I have found that the best way is to put the oil into an approved gas can and then add the gas to it. This helps to mix the oil better.
no
The older two-stroke engines DO require mixed gas and oil, but the newer four-stroke engines use separate gas and oil. Which do you have?
its because i found gasoline in my garage and needed some for my mini dirt bike and i forgot if it was gasoline or gasoline mixed with oil how can i tell if it is mixed or just normal gas
Destroy the engine.
Only one reason. Gasoline is mixed with the oil.
Four stroke engines use an oil sump, and do not need to have oil mixed into their fuel.
the gas is mixed
2 strok(gas mixed with oil)
pre mixed ration of oil : gas
17.6 ounces of oil for 2.75 gallons of gas to get a 20:1 mix ratio
If you look on the case next to where you put tranny fluid in, it should tell you. There is no engine oil in a 2-stroke(as it is mixed in with the gas). I am assuming you are asking about the trans fluid.
