What's on your bench

I run 40:1 in the Lawnboy, trimmer and everything else. Lawnboy only recommended 32:1 because of the oil of the time. I prefer more oil to less oil.

Okay, okay- lets NOT turn a bench thread into another oil thread!

Hello all,
Bought a Homelite Super 2 at an estate sale. Manual says 32 to 1 mix. I use Stihl
HP Ultra synthetic 50-1 on my Stihl’s and older Huqvarna’s. Can I run this mix in this Homelite Super 2.

50:1 synthetic will be fine, oil improvements are amazing. but you may need to retune to that mix.

Picked up a pretty decent 162SE last night for $50. Needs a top end probably as its got scoring. Ill get some pictures later on

Here is the 162SE. Metal tank and brake. Piston has some scoring so I'll P&V test it and see what gave. Looks like transfer scoring so I'm not sure why that is, if someone knows chime in. The saw itself is pretty clean and while a bit dusty nothing about it says that it was abused. A few broken bits on the recoil and clutch cover but not bad for a $50 saw. I hope to clean this up and get it running again. Not sure but it will either be just a backup or end up going to my BIL. Who needs 50 saws right? right...?
