MTD 49V7543M953 2 Cycle Oil, 3.2 oz

What It Is

This is MTD’s pre-measured 3.2 oz bottle of 2-cycle oil, designed specifically for mixing with unleaded gasoline in small engines that require a 50:1 fuel-to-oil ratio. It’s for use in MTD-branded trimmers, edgers, leaf blowers, and other handheld outdoor power equipment with 2-cycle engines.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your engine requires a 50:1 mix (2.6 oz oil per gallon of gas). This oil is not for 4-cycle engines or 2-cycle engines needing 40:1 or 32:1 ratios. It fits most MTD, Yard Machines, Yard Man, and Cub Cadet handheld equipment, but check your owner’s manual for the exact fuel mix specification. The bottle treats 1 gallon of gasoline—no measuring needed. If your machine uses a different oil-to-fuel ratio (e.g., 40:1), do not use this product.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Meets JASO FD and ISO-L-EGD standards for high-performance 2-cycle engines—good for reducing smoke and deposit buildup.
• Installation difficulty: Trivial—just pour the entire bottle into 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline, shake, and use immediately. No measuring or mixing equipment required.
• Common gotcha: This is a single-use bottle. Do not use half for a 50:1 mix with less than a full gallon of gas; the ratio will be off. Also, it’s not for fuel-injected or 4-cycle engines.
• Storage: Once mixed, use the fuel within 30 days to prevent separation and engine performance issues.

Should You Buy It

If you own an MTD 2-cycle handheld tool that requires a 50:1 mix and want a no-fuss, pre-measured solution, this is a solid choice. It’s affordable, widely compatible, and eliminates guesswork. However, if your engine needs a different mix ratio or you have a 4-cycle mower, skip it.
