In the game My Summer Car, all drivable vehicles require fuel to operate. There are four types of fuel in the game: gasoline, diesel, fuel oil, and two-stroke fuel. Two-stroke fuel is used to refuel the boat and the Jonnez ES. The two-stroke fuel canister was added in the April 2017 update and can be purchased from Teimo's shop in Peräjärvi for 99 mk per canister. To use two-stroke fuel, open the fuel cap of the bike, turn the 2-stroke can upside down, and wait until it's full. Before starting the engine, remember to open the fuel tap and keep your revs up to avoid stalling.

What You'll Learn
Opening the two-stroke fuel can
Now, to the process of opening the can. Interestingly, some players have expressed confusion about this, wondering if they need to press "F" or right-click, or use the mouse wheel. However, the answer is much simpler. You do not need to open the two-stroke fuel can separately. Instead, simply pour the fuel directly into the desired receptacle, such as the fuel tank of your vehicle.
It is worth noting that two-stroke fuel is a unique type of fuel that is different from typical unleaded gasoline. It is a mixture of unleaded gasoline and special two-stroke engine oil, also known as 2-cycle oil or pre-mixed fuel. This type of fuel is commonly used in older cars, motorbikes, lawnmowers, and small propulsion applications like outboard motors, mopeds, and go-karts.
Two-stroke fuel can be identified by its distinctive smell and colour. It often has a strong scent of engine oil and may contain blue or green dye, in contrast to regular gasoline, which usually has a reddish or yellowish hue. Additionally, two-stroke fuel might be labelled or marked as such, making it easier to distinguish.

Refuelling the boat
To refuel the boat in My Summer Car, you will need to purchase two-stroke fuel from Teimo's shop in Peräjärvi. The fuel comes in 5-litre canisters, which cost 99 mk each.
Once you have your fuel, approach the boat and locate the fuel cap. Place your cursor over the cap and scroll with your mouse wheel to open it.
Now, take your two-stroke fuel canister and turn it upside down over the fuel cap. Wait until the boat's tank is full. Remember to open the fuel tap before trying to start the engine, and keep your revs up to avoid stalling.
If you wish to get the most fuel economy out of your boat, simply put it into reverse before starting.

Where to buy two-stroke fuel
Two-stroke engines, also known as two-stroke cycle engines, are a type of internal combustion engine that completes a power cycle with two strokes of the piston. They are commonly found in small propulsion applications, such as outboard motors, motorcycles, mopeds, motor scooters, snowmobiles, go-karts, and RC cars. Due to their high power-to-weight ratio and simple design, two-stroke engines are widely used in various light and mobile applications.
When it comes to purchasing two-stroke fuel, there are several options available:
Online Retailers:
You can find two-stroke fuel and oil mixtures from online retailers like Amazon and Walmart, offering a convenient option for those who prefer shopping from home. Amazon offers a range of premixed 2-cycle fuels with different mix ratios, ensuring you can find the right product for your needs.
Specialty Stores:
Specialty stores, such as Saw Salvage, offer a range of 2-stroke oil and pre-mix fuel options. These stores often cater to specific markets, such as outdoor power equipment or automotive supplies, providing a focused selection of products.
Automotive and Hardware Stores:
Local automotive and hardware stores are another source for two-stroke fuel. These stores typically carry a variety of automotive and engine-related products, including fuels and oils. It is worth checking with your nearby stores or local automotive suppliers to inquire about their two-stroke fuel offerings.
Marine Suppliers:
For those seeking two-stroke fuel for marine applications, marine suppliers are an excellent option. Marine 2-stroke diesel engines commonly have separate fuel and lubrication systems, and marine supply stores will carry the necessary products for these engines.
It is important to note that two-stroke engines have higher fuel consumption and do not burn as cleanly as four-stroke engines, which contributed to their decline in production for automobiles. However, their simplicity, power, and lightweight nature make them suitable for various small propulsion applications.

How to start the engine
To start the engine of the Satsuma car in My Summer Car, you must first ensure that all parts are in place and that all necessary liquids have been applied. This includes gasoline, which can be obtained by taking a canister from the garage to the gas station, filling it up, and then returning it to the garage.
Once you have a full canister of gasoline, open the fuel cap of the car, and pour the gasoline into the tank. Be sure to use a gasoline canister, not a diesel one, which is found next to the tractor. After filling the tank with gasoline, screw all the plugs and close the hood. Before starting the engine, run the throttle (choke) located under the dashboard. The Satsuma does not have an automatic choke, so you must manually pull the choke switch to the right of the wheel before starting the engine. This will increase the fuel ratio, causing the engine to run rough. Once the temperature gauge reaches a suitable running temperature, push the choke back in.
Finally, turn the key in the ignition to start the engine. If you are using an auto-clutch, remember to rev the engine before changing into first gear, or you will stall the engine. Keep your revs up to avoid stalling.
