In a pinch, can weed eater 2cycle oil be used in a 200 blaster? Buddy runs it all the time but I hear you shouldn't?

It's not going to kill it over night or anything. I just would use it very rarely. My guess is that the wear will be over time more than anything. I've been using valvoline outboard for mine haha. Got like 200 bottles free.
ya i dont think its too bad, but its just better lubrication in the long run if you run good oil, i ran some ace hardware chainsaw mix one time, but best to run good oil i think. yamalube, amsoil, or somethin to that effect....
In a bind just about any oil would work. Even if its not 2 stroke. It just depends on how much you like your engine/the environment 
All 2 stroke weed eater oil is is the same 2 stroke oil with the word weed eater plastered on it.
I've always wondered what 10w30 motor oil would doIn a bind just about any oil would work. Even if its not 2 stroke. It just depends on how much you like your engine/the environment
But theres no way I'd ever risk trying it... I bet it would smoke so bad.
yo i put outdoor 2stroke oil for chainsaws, and leaf blowers in mine. i think its better lubrication cuz of its industrial aplication. and i run 1/2 20w40 and oil stabilizer in my trans. blaster runs like no other. it idles low until the the oil is warm/hot cuz its think like honey. blasty runs fine and quieter than normal.

I know a few people that have been racing down in mexico, that missed a pit etc. and filled up on pemex and used 10w40 to make the next pit.
my old blaster was run for a year on lawn boy 2 stroke oil, nasty sh*t, stinks and your fuel is almost black, than i got it and switched to hp2, you can run it if you have to but run a lil heavery say 28:1 instead of 32:1
i tried the cheap weed wacker oil ran like balls needless to say switched to klotz r-50 runs great and smells delicious lol
Run High Performance Stihl 2Stroke oil and couldn't be happier, make 2.5 gal at 50:1 and cost 7 bucks though
eh i dont really think it matters too much look at it like this do you go easy on a weedeaters engine if your like me im ALWAYS W.O.T. on our weed wacker and it hasnt blown up yet
