Nothing wrong with Stihl (also use for my chainsaws) but I’d be inclined to go with a trials specific 2T oil. Ask on the Beta forum here (I use Putoline). And definitely ask there on the ratio - I would suspect it’s a lot less that 50:1 which is what I use for my 46 year old TY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rr62 Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Thinking back to my last Montesa 315, I used to run at 75-80:1. And with Putoline. Do check on the Beta forum but definitely don’t do 50:1 chainsaw oil! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totty79 Posted October 29, 2021 Report Share Posted October 29, 2021 80:1 trials specific oil is the easy choice. You can run other oils and other ratios without problems but if you do that you'd have to experiment to avoid spooge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
