I have allot of TCW-3 50:1 gas mixed (2.66 oz per gallon) that I am not going to use this year
My leaf blower takes 2 cycle 40:1 (3.20 oz per gallon)
I was planning on adding .54 oz of normal 2 cycle to a gallon of TCW-3 50:1 gas mix and use that mixture in the leaf blower
That would make it 40:1
But of course-it would be two different kinds of 2 cycle oil
What are your thoughts beside going boating more
my understanding is that the “w” in TCW stands for water cooled engine use as these tend to run cooler that the air cooled engines like chainsaws, leafblowers, weedwackers it is not recomended to use. So I would say proceed at you own risk.
I’ve been running TCW-3 in my fleet of Lawnboy two-stroke mowers for more than 40 years. Not one power head failure or even plug fouling. Funny, I have BOUGHT a few that came with a fouled plug and the PO was using the Lawnboy air-cooled oil!!
I had a bunch of it left over one year. I burned it off in my Craftsman lawn tractor at about 100:1. Of course, the tractor is a 4 stroke and the plug did foul after awhile. I changed the plug and thereafter added Seafoam to the mix. That stopped the fouling. It was a little smokey, but ran fine. That was several years ago and I’m still using the tractor…
