    In the filling stations they sell the small bottles of mix, just enough for your drum. Pour it into the empty drum and then fill i the appropriate amount of petrol...

    the mix oil in stations is not great, if you can get to a stihl agent, this bottle is what you want, http://www.ppestates.co.uk/images/stock/Accessories/stihl2stoke.large.jpg ,,, has the measurement for 3l and 5l, safest by far, otherwise if its too strong or to weak u could be in trouble
