Abstract

A two-cycle internal combustion engine (10) with additional engine oil lubrication system comprises a fuel tank (11) which can be filled with fuel through a filling opening which can be closed with a fuel tank cap (13), as well as an engine oil tank (12) which can be filled with engine oil through a filling opening which can be closed with an engine oil tank cap (14). A regular checking of the oil-level in the engine oil tank (12) is promoted by the fact that both tanks (11, 12) with their tank caps (13, 14) are so configured that, when filling the fuel tank (11), the operating person's attention is drawn to the engine oil tank (12).
