use for old gas mix???

Posted by dave2 on July 30, 2012 at 04:16:17 from (79.240.160.112):

Just had my stihl saw and brushcutter at the dealer cause by the time I got em started I was too tired to use them. If ya don't get anything else outta this story, you should note that sparkplugs ain't sposedta last 10 years in a saw :roll: ...

Anyway, he put a new plug in the saw, drained the fuel, filled with the premix stuff, sharpened the chain, and made the adjustments these guys make to satisfy watching customers. Put a new carb on the BC, replaced fuel, lubed the head, and dressed the blade a little.... Dropped the stuff off at 0900 and picked up at 1130... Charged me 100 euro ($120+/- bucks) and said he'd do future fixes like this for free if I'd buy (from him) and use the stihl motomix fuel..... A little pricey, but I don't use things enough to burn 2 gallon a year so I'll stick to his idea....

Anyway, have about a gallon and a half of mixed fuel. Can I ad that to the 12 or so gallons of diesel in the tractor? Or is it better to just use it as a weed killer (have several 2-3 inch stalks of burrs that should go).....?

Thanks, Dave
