No, 4-mix just need it cos they're crap (valves).

 

Stihl HP Ultra is fine as might be Semi-Syn Super but what does manual say?

Aspen 2

Manual says they recommend aspen and fully synthetic, can't afford aspen or the haste of having two cans of different fuel

Husqvarna XP or if your on a budget husqvarna low smoke. XP was produced in conjunction with the new 5 series engine along with r and d of the leading Swedish oil company. You want the saw to last then you will unfortunately have to buy some decent oil.

That was what I was looking at then noticed it was only semi? No problem buying good oil whatso ever just not prepared to pay £4/l for aspen at the moment

I've used the red Stihl stuff in both our 550's with no issues.
