What many don't realise is that putting that drop of extra oil in 'for good luck etc' weakens the mix and the engine will run hotter.  Mistaken belief they're doing the engine a favour.

Marginal difference but true.

Someone I was working with was like that and often put double or three times more in then needed so never trusted them using there fuel can but after a while there machines didn’t work as good then carb needed replacing and a few other bits

Quality of unleaded does seem to vary a lot aswell and some will stink more then others.

If you do use unleaded fuel, use one of the main brands Shell, Esso or BP avoid supermarket fuels as not as good in my opinion.
