I'm no expert (< negligence waiver) but I'd say not a lot would happen besides a decent amount of smoke. Sounds like some drain the tank when this happen, others dilute it with lots of 4 stroke.... maybe check your spark plugs afterwards.
Might be wrong.Last edited by Mk3 AAA; 08-10-2011, 04:27 PM.

Correct me if im wrong, but isnt two stroke just unleaded and oil?
Id say it would fine, unless you filled the tank
if it was a small bit, just fill tank with premium, run it near empty, replace plugs and go on your way, thats what id do anyway<space for rent>

Haha dont worry buddy im not gonna blame you for anything. Im just worried that it might stuff the metering system in k-jetronic cause I heard its extra senstive and can easily be stuffed from bad fuel. I also just recently got my fuel distributor and warm up reg reco'ed so I really dont want anything going wrong.

fill with unleaded and drive it.
When you get to half way, fill again - that way you are continually diluting it.
Do this for 4 or 5 half fills and you should be fine

You can have problems with carboning up the rings, but other than that it will be fine mate.
Just drive it hard to keep the plugs clean and as everyone has said, fill the tank to the brim to dilute it.
