Default BME owners, help.

Hi,

Here in Denmark I am not able to find the Lawn Boy Ashless or Stihl Chainsaw oil in order to breaking-in my new bme 44, but I am able to get some Bel Ray (I hope). I read that I will not get the engine breaking-in with this oil (Bel Ray).
Could I use whatever Chainsaw air-cooled two stroke oil (50:1) first without worrying too much?
Also, we have only 92 oc. gasoline as the lowest, not 87.
HELP. Please, I am new on gassers.

THANK YOU

Yes you should be fine with any good non synthetic chain saw oil for break-in.
And you local gas will be fine also.

I don't think you have any worries, just use a good oil used in two stroke air cooled engines.

Some engine manufacturers even say to start out with synthetic.

like everyone said, don't worry about the oil. something cheap for aircooled engines will be fine

and euro-gas goes by a different octane rating system...your 92 is about the same as the american 87

Sounds good,
I am crossing my fingers, here (Denmark) one single gallon of Coolpower 30% costs equivalent to 52 USA dollars (I think in USA is 19), so it is important for me to move to gasoline, it is almost mandatory.
Thank you.
