Is it 25/1 petrol and oil for a sthil blower bg85 thanks

Hi
Stilh recommend 0.020 inch (20 thou), however I have found that 0.025 (25 thou) or 0.6 mm provides a better start and run arrangement.

hi there tanyajames88

your victa is a 2 stroke vc160 these units sare stated to run 25:1 fuel / oil ratio

that is 40 mils of 2 stroke for every 1.0 litre of petrol that mix

so if mixing 2 litres - 1st put in 80 mils of good quality 2 stroke oil then put in 2 litres of petrol , give good shake and fill up your mower tank

2 stroke oil that you would use for sthil chainsaw would be ok its hi quality

you could use some fuel stabilizer additive to hekp stop mix from going stale too soon
if wish but most times just mix enoyugh mix to het job done , then mix more if need it

that way mix is always fresh

hi there
pfrolander

the ratio of oil to petrol you should use is 50:1 ( that is 20 mils of hi quality 2 stroke oil per 1.0 litre of petrol you mix ) using hi quality sthil / husqvarna 2 stroke oil


1000 divided by 50 = 20 mils of oil per 1.0 litre of petrol



NOTE if you do not have any hi quality 2 stroke but some from your local garage ( that you may use in say a scooter for example use 40 mils of oil per litre it is richer


this will do the job

cheers hope it helps

the ratio you should use is 50:1

that is 20 mils of 2 stroke oil for every 1.0 litre of petrol that you mix

so if you want to make 2 litre mix use 40 mils of 2 stroke oil , then add 2 litres of petrol only and give good shake

note use good quality 2 stroke oil , such as sthil or husqvarna oil from your outdoor power shop


but if using general 2 stroke oil from a garage use 40 mils of oil for every 1 litre that you mix
this ratio is 25:1 this mix is on the richer side

cheers hope this helps

Hey mate 25:1

use - husqvarna , sthil brands high quality 2 stroke oil

as directed on bottle 50:1 that is 20 mils of oil for every 1.0 litre of petrol that you use

if you want 2 litres mix put in 40 mils of oil into petrol container
then put in 2 litres of petrol only and give good shake and fill the blower


cheers

if using sthil oil its 50:1

chnge the plug for the best you can get then depending on the mix petrol oil mix u could cahnge that ie if its 50:1 go down to 40:1 or visa versa if that doesnt work bin it and get a sthil or an ehco

I use 50:1 with Sthil 2-stroke oil in ALL my 2-stroke equipment. This ratio does not smoke at all, and does not foul plugs.

Never had a problem yet. At this mix ratio, you can also use it in 4-stroke engines, which means you only need 1 fuel can on site. Also eliminates the possibility of using the wrong can to fill the trimmer.
