Info on WeedEater Pro 200 with KAW TD40 Engine

[jclaudii]

I am trying to find information on this brush cutter, specifically the fuel/oil mix ratio. I can find a few parts online and on ebay, but very little information or instruction on some of it's parts. Some of the clones from china claim 25:1 but now that we are almost 25 years later, would a 40:1 be equivalent and sufficient or even a 35:1.

Is there anyway to tell on proper oiling on if you can cut back the ratio?

As a side note, I don't think this thing has been started in 10+ years and with some 40:1 fuel, prime the fuel system with a bulb that still worked, and 3 pulls she started right up!

Thanks for any info!
