In my case it's the 20yr old Briggs VanGuard 16HP on a Simplicity Tractor.
About 600 hrs.
Used Optimol Conventional 30wt first 2 years.
Then M-1 15W-50 Redcap and Goldcap
Now Motul 300V Diester 15W-50
B&S oil filters now M-1
Had a few Blackstone samples done and they showed usually 2-3 ppm iron everything else was clean.
Engine runs better than new!!
How about you folks?
What engines? Applications? Hours? Oil used? How often changed? Oil filter; what brand?
