I wouldnt put any oil in the gas for DFI motors... Your 300 HP motor
should be worth more than salvaging a few gallons of mix ... run it in
your chainsaw or lawnmower ..

I also dont know why chainsaw 2 stroke oil would have any busines in a
colder running outboard ...

no, i am not kidding. we do not have a place to drop it off that i am
aware of, and i do not want to simply dump it out. i do not want it
sitting in cans in the garage for months. i am not an engine mechanic,
and i am not exactly certain what it will do. the boat has a separate
oil reseviour, so i do not pre-mix. i do not want to put it into
anything which may cause a problem.

i do not own a lawnmower. it is from the tailgator and i am not about to
mix up that many beverages simply to get rid of the gas. i may just
simply give the cans to the next landscaper who drives by, living in SW
Florida, there are plenty.

That's my problem. I live on a postage stamp lot in the center of the
city...so my chainsaw, my lawnmower and my snowthrower are all
electric. The only gas burners are my mini-van, 6 hp Evinrude Yachtwin
and my 3 hp British Seagull.
Maybe I will take the mixed gas to the waste depot... I don't want to
use it next summer...I'd rather start fresh.
