all fuels in a clean. approved container!
Some gasoline contain alcohol as an oxy genated! Oxy genated
fuels may cause increased engine operating temperatures! Under
certain conditions, alcohol-based fuels may also reduce the
lubricating qualities of some mixing
oils! Never use any fuel containing more than 10% alcohol by
volume! When an oxygenated fuel must be used fuel containing
an ether-based oxygenates such as MTBE is to be
preferred over alcohol!
Whenever possible use 2-cycle oil or equivalent oil mixed at a
40:1 ratio. Be aware that generic oils and some outboard mixing
oils may note intended for use in high-performance air cooled
2-cycle engines, and should never be used in your engine
