    To clarify, Stihl blowers are mix, ya know I thought about it for a while and I can't say for sure if they are 4 mix or not, but they are mix...husky ones run on mix gas too, not sure if they are 2 or 4 stroke, I just know that after 20 mins I could bash someone over the head with one to make...
