I use fruit shoot bottles the small 250ml ones on a standard tank is 3 to 4% depending on how empty I am I tend to use the same size on my 11 lt. tank on my imola that's around 2 to 3%. I thew away my little jug years ago as it makes such a mess in the tool box. The bottles have the pull out to drink caps that seal up and don't leak in the box.

I use 100mil plastic bottles.At 4% it works out at 1 bottle for 2 1/2 litres and 2 bottles for 5 litres .I have a standard Lambretta toolbox and I can get 6 bottles in a row at the back of my toolbox,thats 15 litres of fuel.My scooter does almost 100 miles per gallon,thats 300 miles of fuel.

As you can see comes in 100ml disposable shots.
As Paul says, 2 per 5 litres gives 25:1.
Not so cheap, but very convenient.
Seems decent oil, semi synth - if you go to the Stihl www, you get tech details.

The plastic bottles that I use are empty ones.I refill them each time.
