haven't figured out what it was, but I shipped it:
Also, I've never seen oil being more subject to explosion/flash than
gasoline.
How does adding oil to fuel make it more volatile?

Your comment and question shows a basic lack of fuel and combustion
concept understanding.
Yeah, I gathered he isn't a internal combustion engineer so what's your
point? I worked on cars for a long time and really never thought about
ping as it relates to two stroke fuel/oil mix, I just mix it right
and
with the octane we run, ping is not really an issue.. As to why the high
mixture and why it would cause ping, I have some ideas, but really, I
don't think it's all that important as long as I have a measuring cup...
That being said in my lawn equipment and boats I run regular fuel with
Spectro32:1 which is designed to run at that mixture in most two stroke
engines.. It's universal.
Will those here more knowledgable please
inlighten SKip.
Why, all he really needs is an answer to his question, he isn't asking
for a course
?
This is a discussion group, isn't it? So why not discuss? The OP might learn
something.
