Only if it is a 2 cycle engine and you mix the oil with the gasoline. If it is a 4 cycle engine, then using 2 cycle oil will destroy the engine over time. Use SAE 10w30 synthetic oil in your air cooled 4 cycle engine.

What happens if you put chainsaw gas in you lawnmower?

You can cut down trees with your lawnmower. Warning: Do not actually try to cut down a tree with your lawnmower. More than likely, the gas in the chainsaw is mixed with 2-cycle oil. If your mower also has a 2-cycle engine, nothing will happen. If your mower has a 4-cycle engine, the engine will probably smoke (bluish in color) until the oil is burnt up during combustion. At worst, the oil in the 2-cycle oil/gas mixture will foul up the spark plug and you will probably have to clean it pretty often until the oil is burnt up.

Oil and gas - does it ruin you lawnmower engine?

Not really sure what you're getting at. If your lawnmower engine is a 2-stroke then you need a mixture of oil and gas to run it.


Can you use 2 cycle engine oil in a lawn mower?

Depends on the lawnmower. Some older lawn mowers used two-stroke engines, and you mixed the two-cycle oil with the gas. But 99% of modern lawnmowers use a four-stroke engine with a crankcase. So if the question is: "Can I use two-cycle oil in the crankcase?" the answer is an emphatic NO. It will likely destroy the engine.

What if you put 2 cycle oil in lawnmower instead of 30 wt?

Bad things will happen. Mix oil is designed to burn with fuel so it will not lubricate the piston enough and you will sieze the engine.
