Just a cautionary note on that testing.   If you do the run tank dry test that Mark suggested,  make the 'dry run' portion of the test as short as possible.   Auto mechanics love people to run their tanks dry because it's good for business.  The lifespan of the pump when dry is VERY short.

I'm not about to spend the money to test it, but would the 2-cycle oil in the fuel for people doing pre-mix contribute a level of forgiveness in this situation?  I just cured my last fuel leak (a seeping valve), and I notice that the gas evaporates and leaves the blue 2-cycle oil behind.
