just divide 128 by 35= 3.65
128 by 50 = 2.56

3 ounces to a gallon is probably close enough to power both. :ohno:

First, you need two separate gas cans unless you want to just play it close
Second, how much oil do you have (in quarts, gallons, whatever)

thanks bro, just got my blower out of the shop and he said the mixture was fcuked up. i just dumped the whole bottle in a gallon, no wonder i looked like the mosquito truck in the back yard:missingte:missingte:missingte



i was hoping a proper mix would do both



fhm, i thought one bottle per gallon would do all my stuff, got my blower back last week and he had filled it up. i ran it out this weekend and didn't want to screw things up again.


p.s. why do they sell it in a 10oz bottle?

blower 128 divided by 35.......3.65 ounces or just under half a cup.........weed eater 128 divided by 50..2.56 ounces or just over 1/8 of a cup

My trimmer and my blower have same specs and I run both on the same mix of about 40x1, which I do by buying a 32oz bottle and also a single 3.6oz bottle.

I use the smaller one as my measure and frankly do 3.6 into about 9/10th of a gallon which means I'm going a little thick.

Better to foul out a couple plugs during the lifetime of the machine than to burn it out due to being too light.

:lol: Three shots to a gallon should be just fine for both. Much, much different that TEN!!!!!!!!
