Edit Reason: Wrong oil name
)
I heard that it had to be Mineral oil rather than semi or fully synth as the mineral oil is a lot like just a thicker more lubricating diesel oil. It also burns better as well.
As for mixing them, If you mix mineral with synthetic it can cause a sludge which when used can cause problems with the low pressure pump in the tank.
I just have a bottle of Texaco Motex 2t oil which is what is put in our strimmer. It is fully mineral which is best. However I don't think it's specified as low ash. I can't find much about it.
