A fuel-lubricating oil proportioning and mixing device for mixing an appropriate quantity of lubricating oil with an appropriate quantity of fuel in the fuel tank of an internal combustion engine, principally for motor boats powered by two-cycle engines. The device of the invention comprises a lubricating oil reservoir separate from the fuel tank and a graduated measuring container connected to the oil reservoir through a solenoid actuated two-position valve and a reversible pump. The oil measuring container is connected to the fuel tank filler through the pump, the valve and a discharge line. After a known quantity of fuel has been taken in the fuel tank, the pump is actuated to draw from the oil reservoir through the valve an appropriate proportional quantity of oil into the measuring container. After a desired quantity of lubricating oil has been pumped into the measuring container, the pump is reversed while the valve is simultaneously activated to be disconnected from the lubricating oil reservoir and connected the fuel tank oil discharge line to discharge the measured quantity of lubricating oil into the fuel tank.
A fuel-lubricating oil proportioner and mixer for discharge into a fuel tank comprising a graduated lubricating oil measuring container, a reversible pump, means for connecting said pump in fluid communication with said measuring container, a lubricating oil reservoir, a two-way valve, first conduit means between said valve and said pump, second conduit means between said oil reservoir and said valve, and third conduit means between said valve and the fuel tank, said two-way valve normally connecting said first and second conduits, manually operable control means for driving said pump in a first direction drawing oil from said oil reservoir through said second conduit means, through said valve and said first conduit means into said measuring container, said manually operable means being operable for reversing said pump and actuating said valve from said normal position for placing said first conduit means in communication with said third conduit means for pumping said measured quantity of lubricating oil from said container to the fuel tank.
