Texas recommends Texas Motex 2TX mixed 2%. Mix 0,1 l Motex 2TX oil with 5 l
unleaded gasoline. If another oil is used a 4% mixture is required. But you should
always follow the directions given to you by the manufacturer of the oil.
-
Mix the oil and the gasoline thoroughly and shake the mix before tanking.
-
Never use a mix of gasoline and oil that is more than 90 days old as this may lead
to problems starting the engine. Never store the same mix in the tank for more
than 30 days.
-
When storing the machine for more than 30 days you should empty the tank.
