This is my first post fellas, so go easy on me. I got given a Victa "Super" 2 stroke mower the other day it's the one with the red top and 160cc motor. Looking at the Victa web site its about a 2002 model, and was told it was broken down. I changed the plug,cleaned out a few lines and took the head off and cleaned up the head and piston top and now it goes like a rocket. Just wondering what fuel mix rate should I be using 1:25 or 1:50?

Thanks mate, I just asked as I noticed my McCulloch 2815? Whipper Snipper has a fuel mix of 40:1 on the lid and I have been using 200mls of oil to 5 litres tin. I guess a bit more oil wont hurt, as it still runs fine.
