How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?

We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :

A bottle of the 4-stroke oil recommended for your mower model, for example SAE 30 for Husqvarna walk and push mowers.
The new Husqvarna LGT2654 garden tractor is powered by a 26 HP Kohler Courage V-Twin engine, bringing professional grade quality to the residential consumer.
If temperatures will be consistently over 32 degrees, use SAE 30. If cooler, use SAE 5W-30.
Engines on most outdoor power equipment operate well with 5W30 Synthetic oil. For equipment operated in hot temperatures, Vanguard 15W50 Synthetic oil provides the best protection.
Only Husqvarna HP or LS+ two stroke oil should be used in Husqvarna products.
Single Cylinder Engines

Husqvarna use our highly durable FJ180V engines. Discover the benefits of their exceptional build-quality for you and your business.

For best results and perfomance use Husqvarna two-stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for Husqvarna air-cooled two-stroke engines.
The correct mixing ratio for your Husqvarna is detailed in the warranty handbook. As a general guide, a fuel / oil ratio of 50:1 is recommended in Husqvarna products up to and including 75cc. In certain heavy use applications, models above 75cc may be run on a mix of 33:1.
The fuel and oil mixture should always be 2% (50:1). We recommend that you use Husqvarna oil mixtures.
Be sure to use 89 octane or higher unleaded fuel. For best results, use Husqvarna brand two-stroke engine oil that if FD certified. Always mix gasoline and oil in a clean fuel container, not in the chainsaw`s fuel tank. Fill half the amount of gasoline to be used.
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.

SAE 10W-30 – Varying temperature range, this grade of oil improves cold-weather starting, but may increase oil consumption. Synthetic SAE 5W-30 – Best protection at all temperatures as well as improved starting with less oil consumption. SAE 5W-30 – Very cold temperatures.
Using a 40 weight engine oil instead of 30 weight isn`t going to hurt the engine. It may, however, it may affect your oil consumption. 5w-40 could be a big jump in viscosity. You want an oil that is thin enough so that the oil doesn`t cost you power yet thick enough to protect your engine.
Mix at 50:1 (20mls oil per 1 litre fuel) when you`re using STIHL 2-Stroke oil.
Unlike 2-stroke engine oils, 4-stroke ones do not burn with the fuel. Instead, they go around the engine. While circulating, the oil lubricates the moving engine parts, disperses heat, and eliminates impurities. Therefore, it contains different ingredients than two-stroke oils.
Husqvarna AB is a Swedish industrial company, one of the world`s largest manufacturers of saws, lawn mowers and garden equipment, as well as tools for stone cutting and for the construction industry.
The Husqvarna Group (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈhʉ̂ːsˌkvɑːɳa ˈɡruːp]) is a Swedish manufacturer of outdoor power products including robotic lawn mowers, chainsaws, trimmers, brushcutters, cultivators, and garden tractors.
Hydropower was required in the manufacturing process, so in 1689, a drilling works was established beside the water falls in Huskvarna, southern Sweden (at that time spelled Husqvarna), where many products are still produced today.

Powered by a Briggs & Stratton 163cc EXi 725 Series™ Engine.
This Verified Engine Formula (VEF) has been extensively tested in Husqvarna laboratories to ensure long-term durability. Protect your engine with Ariens 32 oz. 5W30 4-cycle engine oil. The 5W30 grade oil helps ensure that 4-cycle engines stay cool and well-lubricated.
Manufacturing of the new Kohler engines will occur in Chongqing, China. Kohler officials said the joint venture will have no impact on current employment in Kohler`s three existing manufacturing facilities in Wisconsin, Mississippi or Mexico.
Is SAE 30 Oil The Same As 10W-30? No. Unlike SAE 30, SAE 10W-30 is multi grade oil. SAE 10W-30 has SAE 10W viscosity at a lower temperature and SAE 30 viscosity at a hotter operating temp.
Husqvarna`s Oil Guard Oil is a synthetic blend designed for power cutters and other 2-stroke tools used in the toughest and dirtiest conditions.

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.

What type of oil should be put in the 125L and what is the ratio?
ANSWER : 1:50 two stroke oil1 part oil to 50 parts fuel

Husqvarna rancher, leaks oil when saw is off. where rubber hose meets pump, seems to fit together well but still leaks out. drains full tank of oil. any fixes or better parts.
ANSWER : The hose is leaking. You will have to replace the hose. You do not have to disassemble the saw in half as many seem to think. Just some of the parts that are in the way. You can insert a wire and pull the hose out from the oil tank along with the filter. It goes in and you remove only the parts that are in the way where the hose comes out.
