Small bump to this thread. With rising costs overall in this economy, motor oil shortages a very real thing, etc. I am thinking of swapping to Mobil 1 FS Euro 0w40 in the truck. Thoughts? My truck usage has changed. It is now a weekend warrior / toy so its sits a lot more. I picked up a 2023...

Might try 10w-40 next season for the B&S JD and swap back to for the KW zero turn. Might not.

Amsoil Small Engine 15w-50 for both mowers this season. Will see how they do and adjust accordingly.

I am running Amsoil Small Engine 15w-50 in both mowers this season.

I too use non ethanol fuel in my mowers. Local Shell has a pump with 90 octane without ethanol.

Just saw your post of this image from my generator post. Definitely going to swap to 15w50 or 20w50 this season over the 10w40 in my kawasaki powered zero turn. Whatever I end up getting will go in the john deere for convenience. I just checked and see that now. Guess that's what I get for not...

I honestly had no idea. Thank you for letting me know. I will run them at a higher throttle moving forward. I may just bump them to 100% in that case.

The john deere will be used weekly during summer to mow approx .25 acre lot. The kubota is used weekly during summer mow approx 1.5 acres. I believe it equates to approx 20 - 30 hours every year on each mower. I set throttle between quarter and half of max position on both. The total amount of...

About that time to put in fresh oil for the season. I have a zero turn with a Kawasaki FS651V that I currently run KTech 10w-40 until my warranty is up. I inherited an older John Deere GX85 with a B&S. It has sat for many years. I am going to freshen it up to use and was curious what people...

Made the swap to 5w30 during my last oil change. MPG is slightly worse but not enough to care. I expected a slight decrease. Thank you all for your input. Having both trucks on same oil will make things easier.

I get about 1 or 2 major outages max with a few smaller ones mostly during summer. One major one usually during winter storms and one major one usually during tornado season for my area. Based on some additional reading I am thinking Mobil 1 ESP 5w30 is what I need to run, but I am open to any...

I am coming up on due maintenance for our house generator. It is a 20kW air cooled standby Generac with an Eaton engine and uses natural gas. My late father-in-law always paid local electrician to maintenance. I was looking over the Generac literature. Manual states 5w30 with a preference for...

I recently purchased my wife a 2022 BMW X5 with the B58. We spent many months trying to find the right car for her features wise and the right color combos. I am new to the Euro car world and Euro oils. I have spent some time reading on here and bimmerpost about what oil to run in my wife's car...

I have had my 2014 Ford Raptor with the Boss 6.2 since approx 68k miles. I ran Mobil 1 5w-20 when I first got it about 7 years ago but noticed I got considerably worse MPG as well as the engine idle wasn't as smooth so I swapped to Pennzoil Platinum 5w-20 which I could find more easily in the...
