My suggestion is this:

Run all your equipment with 50:1. The richer the blend, the more apt you
are to overheat and scauld the bearings. While it may seem that more oil
would prevent wear/tear...it is quite opposite in a 2 cycle motor. The
lubrication is throughout the entire engine, and the richer the blend, the
harder it is on the life of the engine components (especially if running
at
high rpms).


Could be - I almost always run my equipment for short periods of time - like
today I had 2 chains saws out and alternated using them.
