An acquaintance of mime has about 70 liters of gasoline that is "contaminated" with an rather unknown amount of Diesel fuel.
He says it may be anything between 4-8 liters of Diesel on the full tank of 70 liters.
Now, obviously he can not use this "mix" of uncertain ratio in his Diesel car nor tractor.
But, can we use the contaminated fuel to make 2-stroke mix and spend it in multiple chainsaws (most of them would be mine)?
He will require at least 15 liters of mix to process his this winters firewood requirements so this would be a good opportunity to usefully spend a fair amount of the contaminated gasoline.
I know that in my youth I successfully "stretched" the limited fuel of my 2-stroke engine powered "bike" with Diesel out of my dads tractor fuel barrel, but that engine was turning only 4-5k rpm's max.
