    I use various Stihl hedge cutters and clearing saws and they have been reliable so far. Depending on type of hedge dictates which tool I use but for oil I always use the Stihl Ultra oil and it's pretty clean burning for a oil designed for 2 stroke, plus I use a tad over the 50.1 mix ratio.

    I would generally use one of the high performance synthetic two stroke oils available from motorcycle shops. Usually Castrol, but when I can get it, Putoline. It smells like bubble gum when its burned.:snorky: They are also slightly cheaper than the Stihl stuff.
