How do you come by your answers ?

I did:

2.5 gal : 32oz of oil is equal to 1 gallon of gas : 12.8 oz of oil

My theory -- If I added (4) gallons of clean gas to the (1) gallon with 12.8 - for a total of (5) gallons ( less the 12.8 oz which I didn't worry about ), then it would be about 2.56 of oil for the (5) gallons overall. Sound about right ?
Yes, I agree with you and your calcs.

I thought you were asking in your original post how to make ONE gallon with the proper ratio (50:1) utilizing the oil rich gas mixture you already had in your container.

We need to have Denny (Bushwacker) chime in on this one...LOL!
