attwood 11873-1 Wide-Mouth Marine Fuel/Oil

Suits its needs. Hard to mess up. No obvious problems.

Great for making right mix

Great measure for oils, etc.

I bought this for my daughter. She just moved into a house and I'm giving her a few 2 cycle lawn and yard products. She's bright, but like most people she lacks the understanding of the inner-workings of 2 stroke cycle engines and the criticality of proper fuel/oil mixtures. With every machine having it's own specific ratio, this can be confusing. The bottle is clearly marked for ratios from 100:1 to 24:1 and for Gallons (or Liters) from 1 to 10 gallons. I marked gas caps (three in all) of the machines I gave her with the proper ratios, and provided her with 3 one gallon gas cans each marked with a respective ratio and a 5 qt container of Pennzoil 2 cycle oil. We both went to the gas station and I showed her how to use the bottle to mix the proper ratio for each can. Why didn't I just give her battery electric equipment? -Batteries are expensive, -They only last a few years, -When they go bad they end up in land fills (many times with the equipment they powered because to replace them cost nearly as much as buying completely new equipment). -No thought is required to use battery powered equipment. -Teaching her how to use a choke, start an engine, shutdown, winterize, diagnose issues and just plain using her head is of great value to me. -When the diaphragms in the carb's harden and/or the gas powered equipment needs repair, I can use that as a learning opportunity for her and a teaching opportunity for me. The cap on the bottle allows you to keep it clean and free of dirt/debris, unlike a measuring cup. One short coming of the bottle is that it does not include a column for 32:1, which is a common ratio. I used a sharpie to make a column on her bottle for this ratio.

Perfect for mixing poison or oil fuel ratios, very efficient and precise.

This is a Great must have item! I bought for my hubby to mix gas for his chainsaws. It is has a nice wide mouth that makes it super easy to pour in/out. Very accurate, great instructions, and easy to read distinctive markings on the bottle. Can be used for a any engines that require gas/oil mix and so much more, all at a low price! Doesnt get much better than that!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This container is great because of its size and its cap. After measuring the proper amount of oil for my mix, I can add a little of my premeasured gas, tighten the mixing-vessel cap and mix, then return the solution to my gasoline storage container. This gets more of the oil that I've measured into the gasoline, and normalizes its distribution.

To lazy to do math. This bottle has definitely saved my outboard motor!

Very easy to use, great for mixing fuel to oil

Great measuring bottle,keeps it simple!

If you ever have to mix your oil/fuel for your 2-stroke, you know how handy it is to be able to complete a proper mix. This mixing bottle allows for near exact measurements. Dealing with a touchy 16 year old snowblower which I had to already swap parts with, it sure is nice to hear it purr like it did when it was new.

Excellent product No labels the measurements are actually printed on the bottle and it comes with a cap so no mess when used No rounded off measurements ! Bought one for myself and bought another for a family member!

Super handy.
