Husqvarna`s Full Synthetic 10W-30 4-Stroke engine oil is a premium oil blend designed for tough, commercial use. Ideal for tractors, commercial zero turn mowers and commercial walk behind mowers. Excellent high temperature protection, and reduced engine wear and scuffing.
But as a general guide, a fuel-to-oil ratio of 50:1 is recommended for Husqvarna products up to and including 75cc. That comes out to 2.5 fluid ounces of oil per 1 gallon of gas. In certain heavy-use applications, models above 75cc may be run on a mix of 33:1.
No Fuel Mixing: No need for mixing gas with oil when refueling. The Husqvarna 224L`s 4-stroke engine runs on pure gasoline.
Choosing the right unleaded fuel & right two-stroke oil

That`s why the best bet is to always go with Husqvarna`s premium lubricants including our premixed XP+ fuel and oil. If not using a premixed fuel and oil blend, you should always use unleaded ethanol-free gas for your outdoor power equipment.

What type of oil does it use? – Troy-Bilt 4-Cycle Curve Shaft Gas String Trimmer #41ADT41C966
ANSWER : I think all of these 4-stroke trimmers use SAE 30HD oil. I recommend synthetic. If you use synthetic, you can get away with using a multi-viscosity like 10W-30 if you can’t find straight SAE30 synthetic, but don’t use muti-viscosity conventional oil in these machines.

What type of oil does a troy built tiller use? I have lost my book.
ANSWER : This is dependent upon what the engine application on the tiller is. If it’s 2-stroke, use a quality synthetic or semi-synthetic 2-stroke oil mixed with the gas. If it has a 4 stroke engine use SAE30 oil, unless you run synthetic (which I highly recommend), then you can use a multi-viscosity oil if you like, say 10W-30.

What oil ratio to petrol do I use?
ANSWER : 40:1 is the recommended ratio for this type of engine.

If you cannot measure accurately you should tend towards more oil rather than less. That will protect your engine and the only downside will be a slightly smokier exhaust and possible oiling of the plug over time.

My husky 455 rancher is not oiling the chain properly. I have tried to clean all the oil ports on the bar and saw but it still is hardly pumping any oil to the chain. What could be the problem? How does the oiling system work?

I have a husqvarna 137 chainsaw. The problem is with the bar oil. When the saw runs oil is flowing but where the rubber corner piece which allows the oil to flow out of appears to be just dripping the oil straight out. It looks like it should fill a small reservoir behind the metal plate and the oil then moves upwards where the chains drags the oil through the oil hole on the bar which is moving outwards as in the top chain on the bar. However the chain-brake area is just getting messy with oil splattering all over and the bar not actually getting oiled. I have fitted a new metal plate to see if the corner of the original was not sealing properly but that has not helped. The bar holes are clean. Any suggestions as I can’t see what it could be?
ANSWER : It’s the rubbers. I had the same problem with my 137 and 141. The rubbers shrink over time and the oil never makes it up the channel. The replacement part is one piece and less prone to leaking than the original 2 piece design.
