...dirtbike. What do I do? I accidentally put an oil and gas mixture into my gas tank for my kawaski dirtbike. What do I do? Also, what will happen. Please and thank you.
It is a 4 stroke and a pre mix. And if I have to how do I drain the tank?

run the tank dry, it will only smoke until it runs dry.

Is it a 4 stroke? 2 stroke? if it is a 2 stroke, is it pre mix type or oil injection type? It makes a difference.

Drain it out of the tank and put plain gasoline in there.

You can either disconnect the fuel line from the bottom of the tank and drain the oil/gas into a container, or just turn the bike on its side and pour the fuel out into a container.

Nothing bad will happen.

Just take the tank off and dump it out. All it will do is make your bike smoke a little till the oil burns out.

My Husquvarnas had a drain under the tank...if so drain the tank.. put some gas inthe tank and drain that too...then fill the tank completely full with fresh gas...

it may smoke a little at first, but it shouldn't hurt anything.....


picked up the gascan for the chainsaw?

You don't "accidentally" mix gas and oil and pour it into a gas tank. You "mistakenly" do it, thinking it requires mixed gas.
