No. I like my spark plugs to stay clean and my fuel pump to not get contaminated. Plus I would imagine this would contribute to catalytic converters burnout.
I do it occasionally if I remember in my commercial 23hp lawn mower. My old older school mechanic friend mentioned how he’s always done it with his dirt bikes, sleds, and side by side atv’s and has never had engine problems like all his friends have with similar vehicles.
Back in the day pre-unleaded gas and Catalytic Converters a lot of old timers would ad Marvel Mystery Oil to fuel tank...
Now I do know people that add Stabil when putting cars away for the winter...
And back in those days used motor oil from diesel trucks was "discarded" by dumping it in the fuel tank and burning it as fuel.
Those days are gone - at least here in the US.
Knew a guy who once had a sixties Saab, and he put oil in the gas. Didn't hurt the catalytic converter.
