2-cycle oil has been formulated to insure maximum engine performance and, increased engine life. The gasoline must be 
mixed according to the instructions on the oil bottle. If TANAKA oil isn't available, mix 50 parts of regular gasoline to 1 
part of quality 2 cycle mix. 
CAUTION: Do not use gasoline containing alcohol or gasohol as this may remit in engine failures.
