I was winterizing my boat motor (1991 40 HP 2-stroke) and I put about 4 ounces of lower unit oil in the tank by mistake. I already put the gas stabilizer in. I was in a hurry and evidently not thinking straight.
It was the last thing I put in the tank before topping it off. I haven't run the engine. In fact, it's in storage until May now.
I'm thinking I have to drain the tank in May and start all over with the mixture.

Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
