I called my customer asked him to bring in his oil so I can mix a fresh batch of 40:1. Right now I did a mix yesterday of my oil at 80:1 (16oz with 5 ml oil) and fuel appears to be a slightly higher mix ratio (lighter in color).
It looks the customer could use 1 gal mix in a 2 to 2-1/2 container of fuel. I had a customer that did it a couple years ago.
Looks like I going to need to get a hydrometer or find mine I got for my wine making. No telling where I pack it over a year ago for the move. Still would some calculations based pure and a known sample then test the suspect fuel mix and compare readings.
I tried finding the BC3 kit yesterday and had no results even at their site. I did find product in development but it appears that not ready for market as now. It involves test strips that are oil sensitive.
The truest measure of society is the how it treats its elderly, its pets, and its prisoners.
