I just bought a gas chain saw that I'll probably use very infrequenly.
But, the gas that I'll have with a bit of 30 wt oil (40:1 mix) should
be used within 90 days of purchase. So, I bought a 1 gallon gas can
and will mix up small quanities of this gas/oil mix. The saw dealer
says that I can put excess (less than one gallon) of this gas/oil
mix into my car.
So, would a small amount of 30 wt oil (probably less than 1/80th of a
gallon) in my gas hurt my '90 E-30 325ic? I'm assuming that if it's
OK, I would add it to an almost full tank.
Thanks in advance!
