That's odd as the shop near me was running a "Stihl" promotion that doubled the warranty when the product was sold with their oil. Did you try the Stihl site:

Found some.
Got the 2.5 gal mix. Only thing, it is in the white bottles. Is there any difference bettween the white bottles and the silver?
BTW6 pack = $19.95

You are probably looking for the label that says "Stihl HP Ultra" on the silver bottle and not just "Stihl Ultra".

Yea it does say Stihl HP Ultra, but they are in white bottles. I just wanted to make sure that the only difference is the bottle and not the mixture.

IIRC, the white bottle is the older color for Ultra. Probably been on his shelf for some time????

Any way, the Stihl comes in High Performance (orange bottle dino), Super (black bottle and partial synthetic) and Ultra (silver bottle straight synthetic)

6.4 oz. of oil in the 2 1/2 gal gas mix bottles which gives you the Stihl recommended 50:1 ratio.

You better look closer, all the small bottles of the Stihl oil I've seen including the ones I have, there are no 2 gallon mix sizes shown. The bottle shows a 2.5 gallon gas mix with 6.4 oz. of oil and as I said, that yields a 50:1 mix which is what Stihl recommends for their two stroke engines.

Now.... if you 'wanna run 40:1, please just use the regular 6.4 oz. bottle and two gallons of gas, that'll give 'ya a 40:1 mix....

HP Ultra Oil is a fully synthetic 2-stroke engine oil specially suited for high performance chain saws and power tools. This oil has outstanding engine cleaning characteristics, plus "ultra" superior lubricating qualities in comparison to other 2-cycle engine oils. It is ideal for use in STIHL 4-MIX™ engines. This oil is biodegradable, degrading by 80% in 21 days.

This was a copy/paste above.....sounds like a good oil....it is biodegradable too! Capt,n

Wow, I went out to the garage and sure enough my Siver colored HP Ultra bottles are marked 5.2 oz and the bottle states, "Makes 2 Gallons". Mine cost less than $15 a six pack.

They make several sizes of containers, including one you can mix with 2 gallons. Google is your friend. You shouldn't mix oil at any other ratio than recommend. Bad advice is worse than no advice at all.
