Is a gas and oil mix required for homelite bandit chain saw 33 cc. if so how much. just got it from a pawn shop

50:1--( 50 parts fuel to 1 part oil)
Now you can buy a special oil from Stihl service agents that has a 50:1 formulation that will cover all mix ratios regardless of the engine make or ratio requirement
saves having different tins for different ratios for different engines

Most newer chainsaws and small 2 stroke gas gardening tools use a 50:1 older chain saws use 40:1. If you don't know just use 40:1 your saw will only smoke a bite. Use hi test gas and good quality oil

I cannot find the full details for the model 360 chain saw but a typical Homelite chain saw uses the 50/1 gas/oil ratio.
1 gallon (US) 2,6 oz
1 litre 20 cc (20 ml)

To the best of my recollection the 330 is an older model saw and should be running about a 16:1 ratio. 8oz. of oil to 1 gallon of fuel. Hope this helps.

Note: You're always better being a bit richer (lower ratio) than you are leaner (higher ratio).

50:1 is the fuel to oil ratio using a modern synthetic saw oil available at home centers, hardware stores, and saw dealers. Be sure to mix the fuel and oil in it's own container, and to shake the container thoroughly each time just before filling the tank to prevent oil starvation. Hope this helps!

Yes you do! The ratio is 50:1 fuel to oil. Be sure to use a modern synthetic saw oil available at home centers, hardware stores, and saw dealers. Be sure to use fresh fuel and mix the two in it's own container. Be sure to shake the container thoroughly each time just before refueling to prevent oil starvation in the engine. Don't make up more than one gallon at a time unless sawing is your business. Hope this helps!

The ratio is 40:1, provided this is a gasoline homelite chainsaw. Find the suitable amount to put into the gas can at a ratio of 3.2 oz per gallon. The bottles that you buy the oil in have marks on them telling you how much there is, and often times, are sized to dump into a preset amount of gas. Put the oil in the can, then put the gas in the can, cap, and shake. Always shake before dispensing.

The header says that it is an electric saw which would only require bar oil. A 2-stroke gas engine, however, does require fuel mixed with a modern saw oil at 40:1 ratio plus bar/chain oil in it's own tank as well. Always premix the fuel and oil in a separate can and shake well even before filling the saw. Hope this helps!

50:1

In the compartment closest to the chainsaw bar, you need to fill this with chain and bar oil. Any good name brand will work fine.

In the other compartment you need to add a mix of petrol and oil in the ratio specified for your saw. If unsure, 25:1 petrol/oil ratio should be ok.
