Look at the engine on your lawn mower. If the engine has an oil filler tube or a "hole" with a cap on it where oil is added to the engine, it is a 4-cycle (4-stroke) engine. If there is no oil filler tube or place to add oil to the engine, then it is a 2-cycle (2-stroke) engine and the oil has to be added to the fuel.

What is better 4 cycle trimmer or 2?

It all depends on you. 4 cycle trimmers do not require mixing of oil and gas. The gas that you use for your lawn mower or tractor is the same gas for your trimmer. They also provide more torque than a 2 cycle trimmer. 2 cycle trimmers require mixing of fuel and gas and are generally lighter in weight than 4 cycle trimmers.
