    Somewhere I picked up this little cup that the outside slides in and out of, like a plunger open on top with a base. It has all the ratios and amounts on the side, in metric as well! It is clear plastic and you can see right through it. Set it to what you need, put oil in, dump oil into container, push the plunger thing in and it wipes out all the oil. Nifty little gadget.

    The trick for rocky was knowing 128 oz to a gallon, which 99% of US highschool graduates dont know. Of course most people can drink two 64 oz big gulps in a day, but can not imagine drinking a gallon of water a day.

    So how do they sell Big Gulps in CA? Gimme a 1.37 liter eh.

    Cheers

    Sad but true. I suspect that a lot of the problem is that practical applications (ie: word problems) are not assigned enough and the kids just don't know (or care) enough to apply the theory to real-world problems themselves. I guess I was just lucky enough to find it all very interesting, while most of my classmates didn't.
    Regards,
    Doug

    Thanks Again Brian for the answer I'm sure I could have figured it out on my own but I had a feeling someone here would know off the top of their head.

    I have found that standard 2 stroke ( Stihl, Husky, Echo, etc. ) is cheaper when bought a gallon at a time. Before I hooked up with this site I bought Echo 2 stroke oil for $13 a gallon ( I am using Maxim K2 synthetic now ). You just have to measure it out yourself.
    BUT THEN.........THAT IS JUST ME!!!

    A.K.A. ROTTEN TREE LIMBS!!!

    OR???

    ROTTEN TREE SCUM!!!
