    Is there a chart anywhere on the net or otherwise that will show you how much oil to mix with 2 gal of gas or 4 gal or 5 or 6 you get the idea.
    I stay consfused when one says 50 to 1 whereby I only need 3 gal to top off tank. I sure would like to have a chart or a easy way to determine how much oil to mix with a gal of gas

    most marine stores sell plastic bottles that have it all marked off for all the different ratios with gals fuel, oz oil needed.

    But it is fairly easy to figure out 1 gal = 4 qt = 8 pt so 6 gal = 48 pts
    That being real close to the 50 to 1
    the rule of thumb to make things easy to measure

    6 gal fuel 16 oz oil (1 pint) = 50 to 1
    3 gal 8 oz
    1.5 gal 4 oz
    .75 gal 2 oz

    the measuring bottles are more accurate than the rule of thumb
