[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 393684, member: 7544"] The only difference that I'm aware of is that the oil used for lawn equipment is supposedly designed to lubricate in the higher temp environments of an air cooled engines vs the oil used for water cooled engines like an outboard. I've used them interchangeably several times over the years if I needed some mixed fuel and didn't have time to make a trip to the store, and not noticed any ill affects. What I have noticed is that my lawn equipment (air cooled motors) seems to be a lot more sensitive to old gas than my truck, outboard, and lawn mower. I never mix more than a gallon of fuel for my air cooled items and if that doesn't get used up in a timely manner, I dump it into the tank of my truck, outboard, or mower. At the end of the fishing season (I don't fish in the winter), I'll dump any fuel left in my outboard tank into my truck. [/QUOTE]
