Default RE: Preflight advice for mothballed trainer

Thanks again everyone. I managed to get in touch with my instructor pilot and he had a fresh gallon of fuel with 20% oil so my fuel problem is solved. I decided that trying to modify the wrong fuel to save 20 bucks was not worth risking a $110 engine and possibly the aircraft. Now what to do with 2 quarts of the wrong fuel? Oh well. He even lent me his battery cycler. This guy is a real gentleman and loves the sport. Pre-flight is pretty much complete.......a couple of hours on the simulator and I'll be ready to go.
