Default Advice on Mower

on 8/29/2007 3:08 PM Leigh_Stenson said the following:
Just been given a Mountfield SP470 powered mower. This was given by a
widow so she has no knowlege about the operation of the mower and there
is no documentation. It has a Briggs and Stratton engine and is I guess
8-10 years old. What fuel do I put in ordinary unleaded or do I
needsome two stroke mixture and if I do what is the ratio. I have not
had much success on the net I was wondering if anyone here had any
advice


Does it have an oil check dip stick? If so, it's a 4 cycle and uses
regular gas.
