A 2-stroke chainsaw consists of a 2-cycle engine which has no valves or cams. A 4-stroke chainsaw is a type of chainsaw powered by a gas engine that operates in four stages such as intake, compression, power, and exhaust. Unlike 2-stroke needs a gas oil mixture of 50:1 while 4-stroke can use direct gasoline. Due to engine mechanism, and fuel consumption, 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines have extraordinary 6 differences as below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Differences Between 2-stroke vs. 4-stroke Chainsaws<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you need to buy a chainsaw, you should buy a 2-stroke chainsaw. Because it is lightweight and more efficient. Hence it can be used for any overhead, and above-ground activities effectively. You should not choose a 4-stroke chainsaw, because it is heavier, more complex mechanism, is more expensive and has a lower weight-to-power ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
