Just joined. Have a Homelite Super Mini SL I won in a raffle in the early 1980's. Still runs and cuts like heck. But......of course I haven't found the manual for it for years so I've taken a chance and used a swamp mixture for the fuel. I'd love to use the correct Gas/oil mixture yet cannot anywhere on the internet find a replacement manual or any info regarding this saw. Is it that rare?? Any help would be appreciated. Going to try and post pics of the saw. Thanks!   |

That saw is basically the same as a super ez automatic. I believe the factory recommended a 32:1 mix ratio. You should be fine running a 50:1 ratio using modern premix oil from stihl etc...

For snow blower. Instructions say 50:1 for NMMA oil. Is Homelite NMMA certified or should I use it at 32:1?

40:1 or 50:1 should be fine with a good quality oil like mentioned for sure. Ran all my old saws at 40:1 with Stihl ultra with no issues yet. They get ran on VP racing 50:1 for storage.

I have a 1999 Homelite weed trimmer model 20706. What is the correct fuel oil mixture ?

I run pretty much any 2 stroke engine at 40:1 unless I’m breaking in anew pistons and rings. I increase to 24:1 for the first tank or two. Probably not totally necessary but I do it anyway.....
