Nothing wrong with Stihl (also use for my chainsaws) but I’d be inclined to go with a trials specific 2T oil. Ask on the Beta forum here (I use Putoline). And definitely ask there on the ratio - I would suspect it’s a lot less that 50:1 which is what I use for my 46 year old TY.
October 28, 20214 yr Thinking back to my last Montesa 315, I used to run at 75-80:1. And with Putoline. Do check on the Beta forum but definitely don’t do 50:1 chainsaw oil!
October 29, 20214 yr 80:1 trials specific oil is the easy choice. You can run other oils and other ratios without problems but if you do that you'd have to experiment to avoid spooge.
