It should run fine on it.  You'll get lots of various views on the mix to use, personally on my old 2.5 I did 50/50 just to be on the safe side.

mine is a little older (1988) - runs perfectly on a 50/50 mix. on longer runs, i do 85/15, but i do find i have to fill up and go, or its a bit harder to start.

I ran my 2.8 on 70/30 mix in the summer (yeah, I know... what summer!)... it started and ran fine in the warmer weather... not so easy in the cold.  ;)
