Last weekend a couple of blokes down the street were cutting down a palm tree. They came and asked me if they could borrow my long chain block and a cable to pull the tree towards the street. That was no problem and after hearing the saw run for a while it stopped. I looked down the street and they had cut a vee in the trunk about 15 feet up as they has a scissor lift. After a while it was obvious they were not going to get the saw started so I had to take my saw and finish cutting it down, it couldn't be left the way it was. After I cut it down I started asking about what the problem was with the saw they had borrowed. I ended up pulling the plug and it was obvious from the colour it had been run on straight petrol. When I asked if they had put straight petrol in it and not 2 stroke mix, the reply I got was you put the petrol in here and the oil goes in there. Goodnight to another 2 stroke
