Thanks for reply.

Any of you think a Wix XP filter is too restricting for my Honda GXV620 on Hustler zero turn. Since I've decided on running a thicker oil in this Louisiana heat.....I was looking for comments.

I'm in WBR Parish....and you are right. 30wt. Just doesn't get it done in our heat. Thanks for your input.

Got it.

Thanks so much for your time and suggestions. I have a lot of air cooled motorcycles...so I have synthetic 10w40 and 20w50 motorcycle oils. Would they be ok since they protect air cooled engines. That 30w Honda and Rotella non synthetic just won't work in this heat.

I agree...but where i live.....I could never cut grass.

Yes....it has forced air.....but, I've thoroughly cleaned cylinder fins and the 30w just doesn't seem to cut it at idle after a 5hr. Cut with temps over 90-95.

I've got plenty 10w50 and 20w50....all synthetic Castrol motorcycle oil. You think that's ok. After all.....something like Rotella T6 15w40 has the same MA or MA2 rating for motorcycles.

This is on a zero turn....not a generator. It is the motor that runs hot with the recommended 30w at outside temps of 100+. Not the hydros. I just want opinions as to whether I can run higher viscosity oil in agxv620 Honda even though Honda doesn't recommend it. It has no oil cooler. That 30w...

My Hustler with gxv620 has flickering oil light after cutting 2 acres in 100 degree heat. What oil to use?

Could be a bad coil. I've had this issue before. When the coil heats up......engine dies. Won't restart until coil cools down.
