A: Yes, you can use in a 2 cycle mix. Just follow the directions for "All 2 & 4 Cycle Engines." You can not overdose with the product so 1oz to 1 gal is perfectly fine rather than try to work out the fraction of an ounce for the gallon.

A: Yes, I use it for all of my Stihl equipment which is 2 cycle using a 1:50 oil to gas ratio. My Stihl dealer strongly suggested that I use the Ethanol Shield Fuel Stabilizer and premium gasoline to keep my equipment running good and for a longer life.

Q:How many oz per 5 gallons of fuel for Lawn & Garden (2 & 4 cycle)? This question is really for B3C. I see that they answer questions here; I've tried contacting them directly but no response. The 8 oz bottle (BC3 1-008) says 1 oz per 5 gallons of fuel. The 2 oz bottle (BC3 1-002) of the same product says 1 oz per 2.5 gallons of fuel. The FAQ section of their website has 1 oz per 2.5 gallons, but also mentions "Preventive Maintenance" requires 1 oz per 5 gallons of fuel. I know this isn't rocket science and it probably doesn't even matter much, but some clarification would be nice.

A: It depends on the use for the fuel and how long you are going to be storing it. As follows:
1oz for 2.5 gallons for regular use.
Automotive: 1 oz per 10 gallons.
Long term storage 1 oz per gallon.
I hope this helps!

A: It's simple and basic, for normal use you'll use 1oz for every 2.5gal of fuel, but if you plan on leaving the fuel sitting around for a long time (about a few months to a year), like if you're storing fuel in fuel cans to use for your generator when needed, then it's recommended to use 1oz for every gallon. But once again, everyone will typically use 1oz for every 2.5gal. Hope this helps!

A: 2 tsp (teaspoon) per gallon. That equals 0.4 ounce. It is 1 ounce for 2.5 gallons. Your 5 gallons would take 2 ounces.

A: It depends on if you are currently using your engine or plan on it sitting for a long time. Use the greater amount if it will be idle, and the lesser amount during use (weekly, bimonthly).

Q:I put a whole 2 Oz bottle of Ethanol Shield in a 2 gallon gas can. It's for a lawn mower. Is this going to mess up the motor?

A: Although you put in 2.5 times the amount you should have, the worst that could happen is the engine might run a little rough, but not bad enough to do damage. Make sure you turn the fuel off and let the engine run to clear out the carb before you put it away. When it stops because the fuel ran out, you've got it.
