    Pre-Mix fuel is OK so long as the container indicates the oil used conforms to JASO-FD specifications/requirements.

       I have never used the ready mixed gas and oil but there are a couple of things I would look at. One, the Husqvarna equipment requires a 50:1 gas/oil ratio. Is the mix you are using this same ratio? The other thing I would be concerned with is the age of the in the container. Gas can go bad pretty fast and if the gas in the mix is older it could damage your equipment. Again, I've never used the premixed stuff nor have I seen it availbe where I'm from but I would be careful with it.

        Forgot to say that I bought new premium gas and I know the oil mix was the same as I've always used. The oil gas mix that I had used before it stopped was no more than 2 months old. I have always used Stihl 50:1 mixture.
