32:1 2 Stroke Fuel Mix Chart

Thirty two to one (32:1) is a ratio used by some older 2 stroke motors. The ratio is not the easiest 2 stroke ratios to calculate.

To make it easier you can use the following old school reference chart.

Metric (Litres:Millilitres)

US (Gallons:Fluid Ounces)

Two Stroke Mixing Tools

Stale fuel is the number one cause of small motors running poorly, we’ve got the tools to help you mix the right amount to keep your fuel fresh and your engine running right.

Mix and manage your fuel. Keep your motors running right.

Calculates the correct 2 stroke ratio mix and saves the date you mixed it.

App Benefits

Easily mix any amount

Mixing too much fuel just because it's easy to use round numbers is a common problem. Mix just the right amount of 2 stroke so you don't leave excess fuel laying around to go stale.

Save money

Keeping your fuel fresh will reduce the number of times you need to take your equipment in to the workshop for additional servicing.

App Features

Container Profiles

Take the guesswork out of what ratio you should be using and when you last mixed, by creating a named profile for each of your fuel (gas) containers to store this information.

Expiry Tracking

Set your own expiry duration within each profile and track how old each batch is.

Universal Calculator

Throw away your old fuel charts, the 2 stroke mix app supports calculation in both Metric litres and millilitres as well US gallons and fluid ounces.

Supports many fuel oil (gas oil) ratios

100 to 1 (100:1), 75 to 1 (75:1), 70 to 1 (70:1), 60 to 1(60:1), 50 to 1 (50:1), 40 to 1 (40:1), 32 to 1 (32:1), 30 to 1 (30:1), 25 to 1 (25:1), 24 to 1 (24:1), 16 to 1 (16:1)

iCloud Sync

Container profiles are automatically backed up and shared across your devices.

Light and Dark mode

Full support for the UI new modes in iOS.

Apple Watch App

Mix batches of fuel with your watch, all data is syncronised with the phone app via iCloud

How to Mix 2 Stroke

First and foremost you need to know what type of engine you have (and whether it requires premixed 2 stroke fuel) and what fuel to oil ratio to mix.

1. Know your petrol engine types

Pretty much all petrol engines fall into one of 3 types:

4 Stroke

Uses straight unleaded petrol and stores engine oil inside the motor. (cars and larger boats and garden machines)

2 Stroke with oil injection

Has two tanks, one with straight unleaded petrol and the other with 2 stroke oil. It automatically mixes the fuel and oil as it enters the motor. (outboard boats, jet skis, snow mobiles and some modern motor bikes).

Premix 2 Stroke

Most likely why you are here and require you to add the oil to the petrol before you put it in the tank. (Older motorbikes, small outboard boats, chainsaws and smaller garden equipment like leaf blowers, mowers and whipper snippers/trimmers).

2. Find the correct fuel:oil ratio and oil

Different premix 2 stroke engines/motors take different amounts of oil per litre (gallon) of fuel as well as different grades of oil. For optimal performance, make sure you read the manual and use the right ratio and oil specification.

If you don’t have a manual, search online for your make and model number.

Also don’t cheap out on what oil you buy, a few extra dollars spent on oil can save you a large rebuild bill later on.  It’s always best to use the manufacturers recommended oil specification.

Be sure to use the correct 2 stroke ratio as too much or too little will damage the motor!

3. Calculate the amount of oil to add

If you’re old-school and like print things we have a series of printable 2 stroke mix charts for download in all the common 2 stroke ratios in both metric litres:millilitres as well as US gallons and fluid ounces.

If you have an Apple phone or watch, we have a free app on the App Store that lets you save profiles for multiple containers storing the 2 stroke fuel ratio and last time you mixed a batch to ensure your fuel hasn’t expired.

For all of the above methods you start with the desired 2 stroke fuel:oil ratio, then enter the amount of straight petrol you want to mix. The calculator will tell you how much oil to add on top of the fuel amount (no need to subtract the oil amount from the fuel).

It’s best to mix small batches more often to ensure the fuel doesn’t go stale.

4. Mix the fuel and oil

Grab a fuel safe container (different countries have different regulations on this) and fill it with the amount of straight petrol entered into the calculator.  It’s generally easiest to start with an empty container and fill it from a petrol bowser.

Add the calculated amount of oil on top of the straight unleaded petrol and give it a good shake to mix it, your fuel is now ready to use.

Don’t use more than 10% ethanol as it may damage your 2 stroke engine.

Free Premix Calculator

If you’re just mixing a random batch of 2 stroke fuel (2 cycle gas), please use this simple free fuel mix calculator: 

1. Select your Fuel:Oil ratio.
2. Click either Metric if your using litres and millilitres or US if you’re using gallons and fluid ounces.
3. Enter the amount of straight fuel you plan to mix.
4. Add the calculated amount of oil to the fuel.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does 2 stroke fuel last?

All fuel will expire quite quickly (no just 2 stroke), from 1 to 6 months depending on what temperature it is stored at.

50 to 1 ratio in litres?

50 to 1 fuel is one of the easiest 2 stoke premixes to calculate, you simply multiply the litre amount by 2 and add a zero.
