So, is sip oil sold in these bottles.
Or do you have to fill the bottle yourself.

An alternative is to use one of the oil bottles with the pull out straw lids and the measurements on the side and some arithmatic.

Just not when someone's got a leaf blower. Going .

Just spent the evening decanting groundsman into a jug then into verous containers for Adria. Back garden looks like an abatuire floor.
Having o transfer one bottle to another slightly defeats the object. And for that reason I'm out

X2 for the frute shoot bottle. 250ml Used a full one on my 11 lt tank works out at around 3% just short of a full ( I used to have a line) but just top it up to one of the ribs for a standard tank full at 4% if I fill up short of empty I don't use it all. Easy to decant into the bottle and they don't drip kin oil in your tool box. I have gone while others are trying to remember have they put 1 jug or 2 in...

sorry, old news, lofteck developments pioneered the use of a Lucozade sport bottle years ago.. it has a similar non-drip top..

drink the Lucozade (warning contains fashionably demonised sugar) take the outside film off, stick a bit of masking tape up the side and mark off calibration points (I use a mark for each 2.5 L of fuels worth)..

however I don't have a informative and amusing video to show :D

Same here. If it's 7.5 litres of fuel that's 2% which I'm happy with or 5 litres of fuel is the said 3% which I'm also happy with. .....anywhere between and im6also happy......I'm a happy sort of person :D

I tend to find when we stop it can be anywhere between 4 and 6 litres of fuel, 150ml gives me roughly between 2.5% and 3.5% which is fine for me
