i am wanting to know what the best oil would be for me to use. synthetic? weight? im running a 29 kawi

Get ready for the ride, you might as well asked what motor to buy.

I've been using Mobil 1 10w-30 in all of my motors, but with all the talk about rounding off lobes, I'm considering Amsoil or Rotella high zinc at next oil change.

yeah

Shell Rotella 15w-40 and disregard what anybody else says.

Been running the Penzoil or Quaker State - and chnging every 30 to 50 hours....

But next oil change I'm thinkin' real seriously about using the YamaLube made
for 4 stroke outboards - cause it has salt water corrosion inhibitors and is comparably
priced with normal premium oils.....

But IMO frequent changing is likely the best plan - not oil brand choice....

delo or rotella t

Rotella for mine

Not this shit again.

I used to run Mobil 1 synthetic. Now i just use Pennzoil 10w30. Its just a lawn mower motor not a top fuel drag motor.

I have found that they blow up with any of the oils !! Lol

I just put some Royal Purple in mine, been running it in my vehicles for quite some time now and are very happy with it

Piss i'n the crankcase

Mobil 1 10w30

Here is a couple good reads that the BoatDr posted.

Amsoil 4-Stroke 10w30 for Small Engines has been running my Kohler 27hp Skag lawnmower for years 1500+ hours with no issues and no oil consumption.

Russ

Syntetic Mobile Uno 10w-30 with a hint of jet fuel and gator blood

Dog Walker turned me onto the BPS racing oil.

Rem oil!

BREAST MILK. It has great wearing propeties and when Im out hunting if I need milk for the doghnuts I just let a little out.

Extra virgin olive oil, it's a bit pricey thou LOL

Astroglide

KY lubricates pretty good

Who sells amsoil, according to the website, no many places

Peanut oil.... It has a higher flash point of some shiat like that.

My 13 year old mower has a 16hp vanguard. I run Castrol HD 30w. I mow 2.5 acres and it still runs like new. I use Mobil 1 EP 5w30 in my Mudbuddy 35(stock motor). Personally I think the worst synthetic oil will out perform the best conventional oils, but with that said is more important to keep the oil clean. Cost of oil shouldn't be an issue. It only needs 2 quarts. If you use Convetional oil, definitley go with Castrol GTX. If you go synthetic a 5w30 will cover more tempeture extremes. If it was more readily available amsoil for 4 strokes would be a great choice.

i run royal purpul, but ive been told that sythetic will find leaks faster, and now my crankcase is leaking already...but that was bound to happen sometime i guess. Needed a new cam anyway
