get the mix tested
......Also I'm pretty sure it doesn't say anywhere on the bottle that you shouldn't use your mix if its older than a certain date... It may be "common knowledge" but its not common to everyone unless they wrote it on the bottle...
...... This batch was mixed about a month ago.......
I bought a Husky 3120 xp and it was covered for 2 years non-commercial use. For this reason alone, I bought Husky over Stihl. After 18 months I took it to the dealer (not where I bought it but an autherized Husky dealer) to fix the following: 1. chipped stop/start switch from recoil handle snapping back 2. blown out exhaust manifold gasket 3. broken chain brake bandI figured they may not cover the switch but guessed they would cover the other items. I was very wrong. First of all the dealer was questioning why I had such a big saw ( non issue), said I had miss used it because the decal on the clutch cover was burned. He said I had run it with the chain brake on (yeah right!). Finally they pointed to the owners manual where it says that the owner should periodically check for loose fasteners and if I had done that I would have prevented the exhaust manifold gasket from blowing out. End of story is: the repairs cost $100 and warrantee paid $00. If I had not bought the saw at a discount through Canada I would feel ripped off . As it is, I lost a lot of respect for Husqvarna and will try Stihl the next time. My guess is that they will find a way to NOT pay for your saw repairs. But let us know the outcome. Tim in NYS
