About this calculator

Calculate the correct amount of two-stroke oil to mix with gasoline for your chainsaw based on the manufacturer's fuel-to-oil ratio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What mix ratio should I use for my chainsaw?

Check your owner's manual — most modern chainsaws use a 40:1 or 50:1 gas-to-oil ratio, but some older models require 32:1.

Can I use any two-stroke oil?

Use an oil specifically rated for air-cooled two-stroke engines, ideally one formulated for chainsaws and outdoor power equipment.

What happens if I use too little oil?

Insufficient oil can cause inadequate lubrication, leading to overheating, piston scoring, and premature engine failure.
