STIHL MotoMix
STIHL recommends using STIHL
MotoMix. This pre-blended fuel is free of
benzene and lead, stands out because
of a high octane rating, and always
provides the proper mixing ratio.
STIHL MotoMix is specially engineered
for STIHL engines and guarantees long
engine life.
MotoMix is not available in all markets.
Mixing fuel
Unsuitable fuels or a mixing ratio that
deviates from the specification can lead
to severe engine damage. The engine,
seals, fuel lines and fuel tank may be
damaged if poor quality gasoline or
engine oil is used.
Gasoline
Use only high-quality gasoline with an
octane rating of at least 90 ROC –
leaded or unleaded.
Unleaded gasoline must be used in
machines equipped with a catalytic
converter.
