Vintage Sears chainsaw s.a.e. 30 nd oil mix *need help*

[Jeffwaters]

I have an old beast of a Sears chainsaw from I think the early 60s and it says to run 30 s.a.e. Non detergent oil could you run a conventional 2 stroke oil vs the non detergent or would that be a problem? Thanks

Any quality modern 2-stroke oil at 32:1 or even 40:1 will be fine.

Yep, same as with old outboard motors

On the little manufacturer label it originally says 3/4 pint of non detergent oil to every gallon of gas. could I just do that with the 2 stroke oil?

32.1 is fine with old saws. It will do this
