My chain saw wants a 40/1 mix. My blower wants a 50/1. Rather than have another gas can sitting
around, I'm thinking of making a 45/1 mix and using it for both. Will that be safe?


I know commercial guys who use 50:1 for everything.


The way the race builders tell me, most gas and two stroke oil is such
quality that the exact mix is not as much of a factor as it was "in the
old days"...
