Yes, If the mower has a 4 cycle engine, which is almost 100% of the mowers sold today it would be the case. I know of no 2 cycle tractor mowers being built in the last 25 years. But is is possible. Most mowers use SAE 10w30 oil.

What fuel do I use for a lawnflite 756 tractor mower?

Use regular unleaded gasoline, and mix it with four ounces of oil per gallon of gas - BUT, how you use it depends on whether your lawn mower has a 2-stroke or 4-stroke engine. A 2-stroke engine requires 2-cycle oil to be added to the gasoline in a certain ratio. 4-stroke engines do not require the gas/oil mixture.

Is your lawn mower 2 cycle or 4 cycle?

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.


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.

How do you tell if a lawn mower is a gas only or a gas oil engine?

A gas only engine has a spout where oil is added to the engine. If there is no spout, then it is a gas/oil engine. FYI - gas only engine is a four-stroke (four-cycle) engine and the gas/oil engine is two-stroke (two-cycle).
