Obviously, I am preaching to the choir.  But I had some straight gas left over 
from lawnmowing season and my snowblower is 2 cycle and needs an oil/gas mix.  
I 
mixed a small, slightly rich mixture in a volumetric container to get it 
running 
in early December.

But I still had gas left over and it needed a refill.  I have two identical gas 
cans, so I weighed the empty as a tare weight and the partially fully one. 1850 
g - 641 g (tare weight) = 1209 g gasoline

Gasoline density is about 0.74 g/mL, so 1634 mL gasoline.  My snowblower likes 
48:1, so 34 mL of oil
Would have been a PITA in pounds, gallons, fl oz.

Note:  The gasoline isn't too old because I use my lawnmower in November with 
bagger to pickup leaves.  Last use is the day I put it away and get the 
snowblower out and ready.
