I just left a lawnmower shop that has been around for 20 years. The owner told me he uses mixed 2 cycle oil in ALL his equipment. His 4 cycle mowers as well. I was shocked but he said if you mix it at 50:1 you will have no problems and it will actually lubricate the cylinder and will absolutely not foul the plugs. IS this guy correct? He said it saves the hassle of different tanks of fuel and eliminates any error when filling up any of the tanks. Plus he said the 2 cycle oil he uses already has Stabil in it so that eliminates that separate addition of another ingredient.
Is he nuts?
