Stihl FS-90R trimmer update

third year today and still starts on the first or second pull.
I've always put ethanol
free gas in it and have made sure it's bone dry for winter storage.

although the power of an ethanol fuel is less that that off gas, most octain boosters are just that, pure ethanol. It is 100% ok to place a 17-30 and maybe a 50-50 mix in your engine without issues, you just have to continue to add the oil mix in 2 cycle engines.
