I keep 2 quarts of M1 15W-50 incase I have to run my generators in very hot weather. My Coleman 5000 Watt / 6250 Watt starting, with a 10 HP Tecumseh, can provide enough power run our whole house AC unit, and if power ever went down for a long time during the hot days of summer that is exactly what I would be demanding of it.
As Cujet has posted years ago, his air cooled outdoor power engines continued to run without problems in hot weather for long outages with M1 15W-50 in them, while his neighbors engines using thinner oils suffered severe damage.
One note, when I first looked to buy some M1 15W-50 I was not able to find it. So I bought 2 quarts of M1 V twin 20W-50 motorcycle oil from Pep-Boys. I still have that also. In hot weather the M1 V twin 20W-50 would also be a good go to oil if you could not find the M1 15W-50.
Sure these oils are more expensive than many of the other oils, but if you are really going to run an air cooled I.C.E. in hot weather, they hold up and provide the kind of protection you need to keep the engine(s) reliable.
Don't let the nay-sayers who preach using lower cost thinner oils talk you into trying a lower cost thinner oil in very hot weather. Sure those oils work fine when the ambient temperature is lower than 80 F. But when it gets above 80 F and maybe even around 100 or more, you definitely want that extra protection that the thicker M1 oils provide.
BTW, there is a rough general rule regarding chemical reactions that is good to know regarding anytime you are making engineering decisions related to temperature: In general, for every increase of temperature of 10 degree C (18 degree F) chemical reactions in general happen twice as fast, and for every decrease of temperature of 10 degree C (18 degree F) chemical reactions happen half as fast.
One thing this points out is that if the ambient air temperature is 18 degree hotter where you live than where someone else lives, you can expect a significant difference in the way an oil is able to protect a similar engine under similar loads. Or in other words, as little as an increase of 18 degree F is a big deal. Someone who lives where it is cooler may very well be able to use a thinner oil without any problems. But when it really gets hot you want that added protection, so when that oil that started out thicker does thin out some from being hotter that the oil than someone else is using in a cooler environment, it is still thick enough to provide the protection the engine requires.
