The fuel composition includes a fuel mixture contained in a container. The fuel mixture includes gasoline and one or more fuel additives which are premixed in a predetermined proportion prior to purchase by a user. The fuel mixture is ready to be supplied to the fuel tank of the engine without any further mixing of the fuel mixture by the user, or optionally, the containerized fuel mixture can be stored prior to supply to the fuel tank. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A fuel composition for use in a two-cycle engine and available for purchase, said fuel composition comprising: a fuel mixture including a fuel and fuel additive; wherein, upon purchase of said fuel composition, said fuel mixture is ready to be supplied to a fuel tank of said engine without further mixing of said fuel mixture. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The fuel composition of claim 1, wherein said fuel additive is a lubricating oil, and wherein said fuel is gasoline. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The fuel composition of claim 2, wherein said gasoline and said oil are mixed in a predetermined proportion. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The fuel composition of claim 3, wherein the predetermined proportion of gasoline to oil is selected from the group consisting of: 25:1, 32:1, 40:1, and 50:1. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The fuel composition of claim 1, wherein said mixture further includes a fuel stabilizer. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The fuel composition of claim 1, wherein said fuel mixture further includes a marker. ### Claim 7 A containerized fuel composition for use in a two-cycle engine and available for purchase, said containerized fuel composition comprising: a fuel mixture; and a container for containing said fuel mixture; wherein, upon purchase by a user, said fuel mixture is ready to be supplied to a fuel tank of said engine without further mixing of said fuel mixture by said user. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said fuel mixture includes a volume of gasoline and a volume of fuel additive mixed in a predetermined proportion of gasoline to oil. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The containerized fuel composition of claim 8, wherein said fuel additive is a lubricating oil. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The containerized fuel composition of claim 9, wherein the predetermined proportion of gasoline to oil is selected from the group consisting of: 25:1, 32:1, 40:1, and 50:1. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The containerized fuel composition of claim 8, wherein said fuel mixture further includes a stabilizer. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The containerized fuel composition of claim 8, wherein said fuel mixture further includes a marker. ### Claim 13 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said container is a can or a bottle. ### Claim 14 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said container is made of steel. ### Claim 15 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said container includes a means for dispensing said fuel mixture into said fuel tank. ### Claim 16 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said container contains a volume of said fuel mixture which is capable of filling said fuel tank of said engine to capacity. ### Claim 17 (depends on 7) The containerized fuel composition of claim 7, wherein said container is disposable. ### Claim 18 A method of producing a containerized fuel composition, said method comprising: preparing a fuel mixture capable for use in a two cycle engine; containing said fuel mixture in a container; and sealing said container, thereby allowing the containerized fuel composition upon purchase to be ready to supply to a fuel tank of said two cycle engine without further mixing of the fuel mixture. ### Claim 19 (depends on 18) The method of claim 18, wherein said fuel mixture includes a volume of gasoline and a volume of lubricating oil. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The method of claim 19 wherein the said volume of gasoline and said volume of lubricating oil are combined in a predetermined proportion. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) The method of claim 20, wherein said predetermined proportion of gasoline to oil is selected from the group consisting of: 25:1, 32:1, 40:1, and 50:1. ### Claim 22 (depends on 18) The method of claim 18 which includes adding a stabilizer to said fuel mixture. ### Claim 23 (depends on 18) The method of claim 18 which includes adding a marker to said fuel mixture. ### Claim 24 (depends on 18) The method of claim 18, wherein said container includes a means for dispensing said fuel mixture into said fuel tank. ### Claim 25 (depends on 18) The method of claim 18, which includes filling the fuel tank of the engine to capacity with said fuel mixture such that no fuel mixture remains in said container. ### Claim 26 A method of providing a containerized fuel composition to power a two cycle engine, said method comprising: providing a container containing a fuel mixture, said fuel mixture capable for ready use in the two cycle engine prior to purchase without further mixing; supplying the fuel mixture to a fuel tank of the engine; and filling said fuel tank of the engine to capacity with the fuel mixture such that no fuel mixture remains in the container. ### Claim 27 (depends on 26) The method of claim 26 wherein the fuel mixture includes a volume of gasoline and a volume of lubricating oil that are combined in a predetermined proportion of gasoline to oil. ### Claim 28 (depends on 27) The method of claim 27, wherein said predetermined proportion is selected from the group consisting of: 25:1, 32:1, 40:1, and 50:1. ### Claim 29 (depends on 26) The method of claim 26 which includes adding a stabilizer to said fuel mixture. ### Claim 30 (depends on 26) The method of claim 26 which includes adding a marker to said fuel mixture. ### Claim 31 (depends on 26) The method of claim 26, wherein said container includes a means for dispensing said fuel mixture into said fuel tank. ### Claim 32 (depends on 26) The method of claim 26, which includes disposing of said container after filling said fuel tank of said engine.
