since this is 110 oz total, I think it would mean it's about 97.55oz gas and 2.45oz oil (this gives a 39.8:1 ratio). Keeping the same 2.45oz of oil but having 122.55oz of gas makes it 50:1 so you would add 25oz of ethanol free gas to the existing liquid from the can
Small engine mechanic A is going to say keep the fuel mixture in the tank and run the engine once a month for 5 to 10 minutes in the brutal cold.
Small engine mechanic B is going to say that is a bad idea because the gasoline ethanol and other detergents will deterotiate the metering diaphragm in the carb. Run the tank dry.
Small engine mechanic A says that it is a bad idea because the metering diaphragm in the carb will actually be destroyed because it will become flaky like a dry leaf come spring.
So what do you do? I buy engieered fuel because it solves all the problems.

Please stop spreading misinformation. GMO crops are extremely common, incredibly beneficial as they decrease costs, reduce pollution, save water, help to save animal and plant life that would otherwise be harmed if sprays were used, they help to reduce food insecurities, and have many other positive aspects.
GMO corn is a vital part of our food chain. Either we consume it directly, or we feed it to the animals that we end up eating. The US produces enough corn annually to sell whatever don't use to other parts of the world to feed other populations. I'd say that's enough of a use to be considered useful.

LOL did you just link to an undisputed fact in an attempt to provide credibility to your unsupported and outlandish statements on GMO corn? LMAO.
Nobody said ethanol wasn't made from corn in the US. You implied that there is a huge amount of GMO corn that exists to be used solely for ethanol production and this is false. Nearly all is used for animal food or processed foods or corn syrups. You implied that GMO corn is only used in ethanol produtcion, and this is false. Almost none is. You implied that it wasn't used in foods, and this is false. You stated that there needs to be a use found for GMO corn...as if feeding 10's of millions of cattle, hundreds of millions of hogs, chickens, ducks and other poultry, feeding hundreds of millions of people in this country alone before exporting excess to feed other countries weren't enough of a reason for farmers to grow it? I'm not even going to get into the cost savings as you likely won't comprehend any of what I've said so far.
You really are clueless.
I should have my brother and father, cousins and uncles, family friends and neighbors all come to you for advice when they're getting ready to put corn in the ground in May. You seem like such a knowledgeable expert, and what do they know? I'll have them all completely disregard generations of experience and knowledge and proven science in favor of your feelings and opinions.
