I have an old McCulloch super air stream IV and it works great but the fuel is out. What is the mix or ratio that i should put in it?

buy the 2 cycle mix oil it will tell you what the ratio is for either 2 gal or 2 1/2 gal containers.

Most are 2 cycle engines. They require a gas/oil mixture of about 35 to 1 to 40 to 1 gas and 2 cycle oil. A little smoke is better than no smoke for lubricating the engine.

get a small bottle of 2 cycle oil and mix it in the gas until the gas is kinda purple.

40:1

Use a gas/oil mixture. Straight gas will burn up the motor.

I looked this up but thought it was 50:1 and it is.
this site has a nice conversion chart
