spare gas?

[XJ-Maki]

Just wondering if I ran out of gas in the Jeep would it be OK to use gas that I had pre-mixed for my chainsaw with a 40:1 ratio of 2 cycle oil? :roll:

dont do it, you will then have oil in your fuel lines and on your pistons.

I bet there wouldn't be many mosquitos around you while you were driving if you did

Grab the wrong gas tank when you went to put more gas in?? :shock: :shock: :shock:

Yea it would probably put on a pretty good smoke show for a while

No but I did run out of gas the other day and was just wondering if the 2-cycle oil would gum it up or what...I didn't have it with me anyways so it's just a hypothetical question :?

I've done it more than once with carb engines. Don't know what it would do to FI. I've also burned 2 cycle mixed with colman fuel out in the boondocks of Lake Chesuncook. I think the nearest gas was over 5o miles away.

it would be fine. not the greatest thing for the cat though

I ran 2 stroke from my neighbor's boat in all last summer. Never had a problem, had to change my plugs by the end of the summer though. But like Ron said...I did end up with a partially plugged cat.

It all depends on what he did to the cat...... A large hammer and a piece of pipe work wonders on cats. Clears them right up.......
