I've got a petrol lawnmower and a petrol hedge trimmer.
Now I'm not telling you that to brag!

Lawnmower likes its petrol straight and hedge trimmer prefers a dash of oil.

Rather than have two cans on the go could I just have one 'petrol plus oil'
can and refuel both machines or do you think it would upset the lawn mower.

Just buy one of the 2-stroke oil mixer cans, and keep the 5l container
for the mower.
They are around £4 from garden centres, with scales on the side for
measuring out the 2-stroke oil. Fill it to the level with petrol, then
top it up to the required level with the oil.
Dead easy, and it stops you having to measure out the oil separately.
Of course, you will still have 2 containers, but one will only hold
around 1 litre,so very easy to store, the other will have normal petrol
in it.
