Other than labeling, and that can get screwed up, is there a way to tell if
gas in a can is straight gas or premix? *I have several brands of two stroke

Consider the relative cost of a new implement against the cost of a a
bottle of 2cycle oil of unknown fuel.

No contest. Dump the gallon into your mower or other low-tech engine
and mix a new batch!
