#1: Yes, but admittedly I have a lot on my plate so it was slightly distracted. FWIW, I've also read Kawasaki's engine manual many times and I don't follow their outdated/substandard recommendations either.#1: Did you read the service manual?
#2: There are many professional landscapers @LawnSite.com using the Mobil 1 15W50, with good results.

#2: I know any of the above would be acceptable or even great, but remember what forum we're on...I want the best.
