Two-stroke engine oil

Two-stroke engine oil
Two-stroke engines found in chainsaws, leaf blowers, and older motorcycles require oil mixed directly into gasoline because they lack a separate lubrication system. The typical mixing ratio ranges from 40:1 to 50:1, meaning 40 to 50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil. Too little oil causes engine damage from friction and heat, while too much creates excessive smoke and carbon buildup. Modern synthetic two-stroke oils burn cleaner than older mineral oils, producing less blue smoke and fewer deposits.
