trimmer you need to still use mix lawnmower use what they spec

 

The trimmer is a 4 cycle separate oil. It is not a mix oil gas.

 

You should be fine.

 

Check the owner's manuals. If they say 10-30, you're OK. I've heard from an engineer that tests lubricants for a living that synthetic is the best choice for small 4-cycles. It flows thru the tight tolerances better, lubricates better, and is actually part of the cooling process.

The reason I use GTX is because I just read the post on breaking in. I actually just change to Mobil 1 after 5 hours of use and I have to change it out because the trimmer is too new!!!!
Thanks

Use the Mobil-1 if it's affordable, I've been using all the old Mobil-1 out of the hydro riders in the chainsaw oilers and guess what? the bars and chains are absolutely clean the chips don't stick, it's amazing,the oil maybe dark,dirty but the lube capacity on a bar chain doesn't go away,it beats the heck outta regular 30W bar oil. By the way, I've been converting my Powerstroke over to Mobil-1 and the Texas cold morning start is gone.
