I have an Echo 550EVL chain saw, bought in 1985 which I used to use a lot. I have not used it for some time(years) and I have lost the instruction book, etc. Now, I want to use it again, but I am not sure what fuel mix I can use...Can I use no-lead 95 + 4% oil mix or do I have to use a (leaded) Super fuel(+4%oil), which is difficult to find where I live (Carcassonne, France)?

25:1 for any old 2tx oil or 50:1 for good quality oil. For the manual, go to www.echo-usa.com, pick Technical Documents from the list on the right, put CS55oEVL in the search box, download your manual from the results, they're in PDF format so you'll need a reader (acrobat reader). parts list there too.
