Only Mix As Much Gas As You Need
By Benjamen Johnson
You just want to mix a pint of gas in a 40:1 mixture with two-cycle oil, because you don’t want to have a gallon or two of mixed gas left over at the end of the season. Do you want to crunch the numbers in your head or find a calculator? No. Instead use the MixMizer’s ratio scale to take the guesswork and/or calculation out of mixing gas.
Hopkin’s MixMizer is a plastic syringe-like tool that only weighs 15.8 ounces. It comes with a plastic extension tube to reach the bottom of the can to get those last few drops of oil.
You can purchase the MixMizer for something like $6 to $7.

I bought one of these just to mix the gas directly in my string trimmer. I didn’t want to have a gas can with gas that would just go bad before I could use it all.

That’d keep me from getting in trouble messing around in the kitchen drawers. You just can’t tell some people that that oil will wash off.
