I have two gas weed eaters for different needs. One is a Poulan and the other is a Ryobi, both 2 cycle. Poulan uses 40 to 1 gas and the Ryobi uses 50-1. Last fall I decided to buy the already mixed and bought a 50-1. The Poulan did OK but when trying to get it to start this morning it was like it was gummed up. I sprayed the carb good with cleaner and blew it off with the air hose. Still the Poulan wouldn't start. I poured the half a tank of 50-1 out and opened a new can of 40-1 for the Poulan and it ran like it should.
I didn't realize the difference were that much in how each engine operates. The 50-1 runs well in the Ryobi but not in the Poulan.
