    Quick question,

    What type of petrol (unleaded or leaded) do I use for a regular domestic lawn mower and what type of oil does it take.

    Thanks,

    LK

    I'm gonna assume it's a 4-stroke engine. Regular unleaded petrol should be fine. Most hardware stores and petrol stations sell a special lawnmower oil.

    If it's 2 stroke then you will need 2 buy 2-stroke engine oil and mix it with the petrol according to lawnmower instructions.

    Most lawnmowers are 4-stroke.
