Now that I think about it, it was probably before the pandemic. 🤔

I thought two-stroke engines mix the oil and fuel together? Every time you refuel, you should also be topping up the oil. Am I wrong?

Never seen a two-stroke mower...

I knew some folks with a repair shop as a kid and got to use one of these.

I've seen and used them. Not for 10 years or so though.

I found a Lawn Boy in a barn a few years ago that I'm using. Two stroke from 1979. Infact those engines were also used as air cooled outboard boat motors.
