or higher) gasoline or gasohol known to be good
quality.
Gasohol may contain up to 10 % Ethyl (grain)
alcohol or 15 % MTBE (methyl teriary-butyl ether).

approved.
TWO-STROKE OIL - A two-stroke engine oil
meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and JASO

due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to
use an ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and JASO
M345-FC/FD certified oil, such as ECHO premium
Power Blend X™, will void the two-stroke engine
warranty. (Emission related parts only are covered
for two years, regardless of two-stroke oil used, per
