gambian petrol situation

At the moment there is a petrol shortage -diesel ok- in the whole of gambia. There are long queues at the petrol station that do have some but is rationed.

> Fill up your tank, jerricans, water bottles, whatever etcetc in Senegal

The only thing that is easily available is 2 stroke petrol, is that any good? What are the effects on the carb, fuel filter etc etc. Would like to know before i get desperate...

Started seeing long queues at the petrol pumps in Accra, Ghana the last week. Didn't hear about rashioning but several stations were out of petrol altogether.
