Embarassed I picked up the wrong petrol can in the garage and put the sherco (2 stroke , 70:1) pre mix petrol in my TLR200 ( 4 stroke ) Around 4 litres of it went in the bike and I used it ALL, there was no ill affects tho , but would I have damaged any thing ? or if I take it for a run with normal petrol will it be fine ?

Cheers.

EDIT: The sparky is quite black so I will clean it up.

Thats all I would expect to happen, a little plug fowling from the 2 stroke oil, otherwise it would run OK.

just makes it smoke, thats why i use it to coat the insides of old petrol tanks, it attaches to all the loose metal thats exposed from the nuts on a string method and protects it.
