Hello everybody out there!!!
i have a serious problem that begs an answer from one of you smart people out there...
I have an old Remington chainsaw that was just lovingly restored.It looks brand new!!
the problem is the gas/oil ratio...I have no idea what it should be:(
the saw is a Remington SL9. ser# 811844813 or 611844813
the first digit in the ser # is not very clear,but it is either a 6 or an 8
So if anyone can help me out on this I would be mighty thankful S.Murray Guelph,Ont. Canada

The ratio is 1:16. It should be written on the gas cap.

I have the book on the sl-9 the fuel mixture is Mix one cup (1/2 pint) of SAE 30 weight two-cycle oil to one gallon of regular gasoline or one pint of oil to two gallons of gasoline.

Hi, I'm not familiar with your unit. I have several remingtons. They all spec 16 or 20 to 1. I'll suggest using more like 32 or 40 to 1 with two stroke oil. If you intend to use motor oil instead stay with a richer mix.

Hi steve, I'm not sure how old your saw is, but old 2-cycle engines used a 16:1 ratio(1/2 pint per gallon). However, the oil, and not the saw, determines what ratio is acceptable. The only exception to that are engines that have a bushing somewhere rather than all ball, roller, and needle bearings. If yours is one of the exceptions I mentioned, use a traditional 16:1 mixing ratio with a traditional 16:1 2-cycle oil. Good luck...Al English
