Not necessarily, four stroking is a sound the saw makes at a unspecified number of rpm, it is not certainly 12000 but more likely than 13 500.
I don't set saws by tach, I set them after performance.

I like to set saws on the rich side and you can hear them clear up when they get in the wood and start cutting.  Like a blubbering sound out of the wood aka 4 stroking and clear up and sound like a mad hornet in the cut.  No certain rpm just by ear.

 I  use a tach to check saws settings with and make sure my ears are not way off and get one set to lean when I am pushing the limits looking for the quickest cut times (when goofing around testing stuff).  If you do like above I dont think you could ever go wrong.

With  sthil oil on the muffler is more smoky than with makita oil.The same proportion on oil.
Why is that?

WAG one is the stihl dino oil in orange bottle and maybe the other is semi synthetic or  synthetic smokeless or low smoke.  ???

Better stick with fully or semi synthetic as dino oil likely have trouble mixing with the fuel sold today.

AFTER 3 OR 4 thanks of fuel is normal for a saw to go lean when the chain is no longer sharp?At full wott the rpm is set at 12500.

Settings of saw has nothing to do with sharpness.

If it is dull, sharpen it. Don't run blunt chains, they don't work right.
