I'm considering using a Hirth 2702 in a MiniMax rather than a 1/2-VW. The question that arrises is, how does one purchase fuel and mix it with oil when on a cross country? Do you carry a collapsible container for measuring and mixing as well as your oil? Do you have your wife drive around to meet you with a can of fuel....just kidding. I obviously have no experience with two-cycle engines that do not whip weeds, saw wood, or blow leaves.
