is this bad? he told me today that his wife took the weedwacker gas which is some mixture of oil/gas, and put it in the cavalier, thinkin it was regular gasoline. it was only about a gallon, and then she took it out and put in about half tank of regular gas.

i told him it probly shouldnt hurt since its diluted alot now. just wondering if this is actually harmful

it’s harmful to the cat, could plug it, but doubtful. should be diluted enough. can’t be any worse then the oil burners on the road.
