Just use it in your lawn mower, lawn tractor, truck, or whatever. I do it frequently. You won't even be able to tell the difference.
Haha, that's what I always thought and have done too, but this spring I got rid of a couple gallons of dirtbike premix into one of the mowers. 2-3 gal of premix in a 5 gal tank, topped off with reg gas. I thought the old mower spring an oil leak after running it. It slobbered a big puddle of oil out of what I thought was the valve over or head/cyl gasket!
Thought it was end of the road for the old mower until I realized the oil on the ground was red and smelled just like the Klotz oil that I'm currently using!
On the upside, the exhaust smelled like 2 stroke race gas for a while!
Evidently it was too much oil at once, but my mower engine was well lubed!
