2cycle fuel mix is a function of the oil used, not the engine the fuel mix is used in.
Pick a 2cycle oil and mix it according to what the oil says.
This is what I use on all my 2cycles and it's 100:1 -
Owners manual call for 40:1 mix for the Weedeater GTI19.
Or just use a good multi-mix oil that works from 16:1 to 50:1. It come in pre-measured bottles or packages for mixing with 1 or 2-1/2 gallons of fuel. This cut down multiple cans of fuel mix for your various pieces of 2 cycle equipment. This is what I use in the repair shop so I don't have to worry about using the wrong mix.
Look on the fuel cap for the proper mix of gas to oil. It could be 20:1 or 32:1 or 40:1 or 50:1. you MUST you the correct mix. Wrong mix could trash the engine with too little oil. Too much oil will give poor performance and foul out plugs or may not run at all .
Two-stroke oil with a 50:1 (Gas:Oil) mix ratio is required for the Husqvarna 125B leaf blower. Using the wrong oil or improper mixture ratio can drastically affect the performance of the leaf blower.
A two stroke fuel oil mix in the engine will not hurt it, it may smoke a little but thats all, i would suggest there is somthing else wrong with it other than the fuel oil mix that he used. a new plug would not hurt incase there is some carbon fouling from the oil.
Husqvarna chainsaws run at a 50-1 fuel oil mix with Husqvarna two stroke oil, with other two stroke oils they recommend 25-1 fuel oil mix as they do not know the quaility of other manufacturers oil, always try to use Husqvarna oil.
Mix the fuel/oil ratio an ounce of two cycle oil to a quart of gasoline or 4oz of two cycle oil per gallon of gasoline. I don't think that the fuel mix is the problem though. Check the screen at the exhaust port and clean out any carbon build-up found there. I would clean or replace the in-tank fuel filter as well. Anyway, hope this helped and best wishes.
