Does your lawn mower require 2 cycle engine oil?
If it is a 2-stroke engine, 2-cycle engine oil is added to the gasoline. If the engine is 4-stroke, regular 30W motor oil is used. To tell if your engine is 2-stroke or 4-stroke, look for a spout where oil is poured into the engine. If there is no spout, then the engine is 2-stroke and 2-cycle oil must be added to the gasoline.

What oil is faster 2 stroke or 4 stroke?
Oil is a lubricant. 2 stroke oil is designed to be mixed with gasoline and in that form it lubricates the engine. 4 stroke oil lubricates the engine but is not burned as 2 stroke oil is.
