Mixing Fuel

CAUTION!

Some types of gasoline contain al- cohol as an oxygenate. Oxygenated gasoline may cause increased op- erating temperatures. Under certain conditions, alcohol-based gasoline may also reduce the lubricating qualities of some 2-cycle mixing oils. Never use any type of gasoline containing more than 10% alcohol by volume! Generic oils and some out- board oils may not be intended for use in high-performance C4 engines, and should never be used in your Shindaiwa engine.

CAUTION!

This engine is designed to oper- ate on a 50:1 mixture consisting of unleaded gasoline and ISO-L-EGD or JASO FC class 2-cycle mixing oil only. Use of non-approved mixing oils can lead to excessive carbon deposits.

nUse only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline with a pump octane of 87 or higher.

nMix all fuel with a -cycle air-cooled mixing oil that meets

or exceeds ISO-L-EGD and/or JASO FC classified oils at 50:1 gasoline/oil ratio.

Examples of 50:1 mixing quantities

n1 gallon of gasoline to .6 oz. mixing oil

n5 liters of gasoline to 100 ml. mixing oil

IMPORTANT!

Mix only enough fuel for your immediate needs! If fuel must be stored longer than

30 days and oil with fuel stabilizer is not used, it should first be treated with a fuel stabilizer such

as StaBil™.

Oil is a registered JASO FC classified oil and also meets or exceeds ISO-L-EGD performance requirements. Shindaiwa One is recommended for use in all Shindaiwa low emissions en- gines. Shindaiwa One also includes

a fuel stabilizer.

Filling the Fuel Tank
