: : : : : : : Yes putting oil in your gas is good for it. Mix it in a ratio of 1 part oil to 16 parts gas or 16:1 just the way you mixed it for your old chain saw. Fire it up and watch it go. Oh my the way this is only good if you have a mosquito problem in the area. If you are worried go to the autoparts store and by the "REAL" lead additive. : Very few 2 cycle engines even call for 16 to 1 gas oil mix any more. I use Lawn Boy "Ashless" and mix 64 to 1 (hey it lubes mains, crank and piston on those little engines at incredible RPM's)there is no smoke and no plug fouling. I sometimes do the same with Marvel Mystery Oil. :-) You are correct about the lesser of the ratios, 32:1 and 64:1 that is why I clearly stated "for your old chain saws". See I am getting the hang of this board and I know someone will jump on the slightist discrepencies. Nothing I run over the road or through the woods. is newer than an '73.
