what i,m not understanding is each brand name say,s if you use their oil. The mix is 50:1 but any other brand 40:1. Now in my research It looks like the MAHLE company makes all the jugs for stihl , husky,dolmar.etc. WHY can,t you run a different oil at 50:1 . It sound silly! but i,m not expert by any means. So is this just a way for that company to sell there name brand or is there some validity to the warning in my owners Manuel. I finale received my NEW MAKITA 6401 very happy but I have some hi-grade gas that as stihl oil in it and that's what got me to this ???? I have not put any fule or bar oil in her yet. thanks for your time for any one that know their oil.
