Never! With this subject, great care must be taken! You can not simply mix oils for different motor or enginge designs!
Lawnmowers and motor scooters have 2-stroke engines, a car mostly has a 4-stroke engine and you can not use oils for 2-stroke engines in a 4-stroke engine, otherwise an engine damage can be the result!
