AnswerHI JOHN
GENERAL RULE IF USING GOOD QUALITY 2 STROKE OIL IE ,STHIL , JONSERED, HUSQVARNA OILS
RUN AS ON THE BOTTLE 50:1 THAT IS 20 MILS OF OIL PER LITRE THAT YOU MIX
SO IF YOU WANT A 2 LITRE MIX - PUT 40 MILS OF 2 STROKE OIL IN CONTAINER 1ST THEN PUT IN 2.0 LITRES OF FUEL ONLY THEN FILL THE SAW TANK
BUT IF YOU WERE TO USE 2 STROKE OIL FROM THE SERVICE STATION DESIGNED FOR SCOOTERS ETC
AND COULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH CHAINSAWS ETC RUN IT AT 25: 1 RATIO
IE 40 OF OIL PER LITRE OF PETROL THAT YOU MIX
DONT BE TEMPTED TO ADD TOO MUCH OIL TO THE MIX AS IT CAN ACTUALLY MAKE THE ENGINE RUN LEAN
ALWAYS USE FRESH MIX AS STALE FUEL CAN CAUSE DAMAGE AS WELL
CHEERS HOPE THIS HELPS AND DOES NOT CONFUSE
