A gew years ago I bought some of the cheapo stuff at Canadian Tire, same idea as Wally World, some outfit bottles about 20 billion litres for them. I mixed it in a pail 2:1 (it gets cold up here) according to label directions. Before I poured it into my tractor I tested the mixture and my gauge showed a lot lower than the chart on the bottle did.
