Post Which oil???
I just got a mud buddy 35 hd sport. I was wondering what oil everybody uses and how often do you change it? Thanks for all the help

mobile 1 syn 5w30 just changed mine after 5 hr break in. manual says every 100 hrs after that. but may do it more often depending on how many hrs i put on it this summer.

I would change it more than every 100 hrs. I change mine at least every 50. So for me, that is once right before duck season then right after the season ends. I run mobil 1 10w-30 full synthetic

What oil do you run in your lawnmower?

Did you join a forum to ask that too? :roll:

Thank you guys for all the help! Just picked up my first mud motor, and there was no owners manual or anything with it. Thank you again for all the help!

Thank you,
Tanner Wildes

I run diesel 15w40 oil. It has higher Zddp packages that help the flat tappet lifters.

diesel oil has higher Zinc than your typical oil. Its a preference... Oil is oil, But I run 15w40 rotella/mobil delvac. whatever is cheaper or whatever i have on hand.

About an hour ago when I was in the shower. Why are you concerned about my dick? :?

Did your mom forget to put you down for your nap after your snack and juice box this afternoon?
