    I saw the rotella diesel SAE30 on the shelf and was going to email them. Seems it should be ok based on this thread link, and basically the same sort of thing as the 2 gallon diesel/gas supertech sae30. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/2305551/1 i'm just gonna stick with...

    Walmart HD SAE30 Okay for mowers? 30-CF

    BUMP I joined this forum just to ask this, thinking yall would know There must be thousands of people wondering the same thing since Walmart stupidly discontinued their 'SAE 30 Mower oil'. Possibly googling and will find this thread. Sure 10w-30 is ok but yes SAE30 is better for Summer. 1)...

    Walmart HD SAE30 Okay for mowers? 30-CF

    Walmart HD SAE30 Okay for mowers? 30-CF

    I used to buy walmart SAE30 for my mowers but Walmart discontinued it some months ago, I read others mention this too. When it's colder than 45F, I use 10w-30, but prefer straight SAE30 in Summer because it burns off less than 10W-30. I use 5w-30 for winter snowblower of course. Apparently no...
