Neil, your math is correct and I too have been using the same 1% rule or 200 ml for each 20 litre Gerry can.  With 150 hrs on the plane now, maybe I should cut back to 160 ml as well.

Gents,

                 Further to the recent discussion you all seem to put one ounce in your US gallon?  Your US gallon is only 4 litres in Aust terms.  Apparently according to Dr Google there are 128 ounces in a US gallon.  That according to my maths is 0.8%.  I have been consistently been putting in 1% .  That is 200ml in 20 litres of fuel.  Now it appears that I am somewhat "lavish" with the 2 stroke oil.  If that is the case I now know why I continually "make" oil in the sump.  0.8% now means that I can cut back to 160ml per 20 litres?

Correct??   Neil.
