And what I put up is the current owners manual for the ms661 & the ms460 is the same
My reference says you can use a different ratio.
Check.....
Your reference does not say you can’t.......it only references Stihl oil.
And Mate.....game over.
Now I’m going to go try and teach a pigeon to play chess.
At least they seem to listen at times........
kinda like an old oil religion
40:1 some of my saws say 50:1 is ok but I'm not going to have 2 cans of gas so 40:1 it is. A little extra oil won't hurt.

Do you use a set of the graduated plastic spoons with a spring ring through the handles & are they green to match the country side?

Most saw brands that marketed the own brand oil did this It was & still is BS to get you to buy their brand of oil there are many blended oil brews on the market equal or better than any saw branded oil
Oh I know.......but sometimes I mix 10:1 non detergent 30 wt per manufacturer instructions.

Been there, done that with a 1973 Evinrude 40hp twin at WOT on the Potomac. Bud of mine was steering and playing games trying to ride wakes on my "new" 1966 Whaler ... and the motor was only clamped onto the transom, not bolted, and when I heard the engine scream, I turned around and there it was: Completely out of the water, in mid-air, at about 90° to its proper orientation, and I wasn't sure whether it was coming IN or going OVERBOARD...

I did that before. Grew up on a lake and scared the stuff right out of me.

More than you could ever imagine. But not really relevant in another oil myth thread
