That would depend on whether the engine is a 2-stroke or a 4-stroke. You can determine by looking for an oil filler spout or filler cap on the engine. If it has one, the engine is a 4-stroke and the oil is added through there. If it doesn't have one, the engine is a 2-stroke and 2-cycle oil must be added to the fuel in the recommended ratio.
