Since I know I get around 25-26 mpg, I just reset the odometer every fillup, then when the next fillup comes around I divide the odometer mileage by 25 (to get the number of gallons required to fillup), and multiply that number by 1.25 (an approximately 100:1 ratio).

For instance, today I had 260 miles on the odometer before the fillup, that's 10+ gallons, times 1.25= 12.5 (plus a little) ounces of premix. Simple, eh?

i'm lazy, i just fill up sometime after it hits 1/4 of a tank, and use half a quart (16oz). usually the fill is ~15 gallons. 1oz to a gallon is what most people shoot for.
