picked upa quart of Conoco HD Fleet SAE 30 today. need to chang the oil in my push mower with a 6.5 briggs. should this oil be ok to use? it says its recommended for 2 stroke diesels, especially 71 series Detroits, and its API CF-2, CF rated.

They'll run on 5w40 T6 as well with no issues. Same for snowblower... though that will go back to a syn 5w30 this winter now that I've had the burnt exhaust valve replaced and valve seat cleaned up.
ok, i was just wondering cause it has a CF rating, didnt know if that was obsolete. and shouldnt it protect better since its a diesel oil, better additives?
