Rusty,

First, glad to hear that you and your family are OK - really, nothing else matters.  Next, premix will not hurt the 4-stroke Honda (or any other 4 stroke).  I have for years run 'old' mixed gas in my lawn mowers or just dumped it in the Mustang.  I sometimes wonder if the 2-stroke oil will hurt catalytic converters or oxygen sensors but I have never had any damage or heard of problems.  The Mustang has over 200,000 miles with the original oxygen sensors and cats.
