Post your latest small engine oil change

[Colt45ws]

Drained out the mix of Rotella 10W30/5W40 55/45% mixture that had been in it for a year and a half.
Put in more of the same blend until I ran out.
Then it got 1/4qt QS green 5W20 and 1/4qt T6 5W40 to top it up.
Used my last 'long' FL400S

Just drained/filled a 207cc B+S Intek on a log splitter...may have been the original fill of oil as there was no indication it had been drained before (newer engine, older splitter). Drained out not-to-bad looking oil, and reflled with Schaeffers 5W40.

Ran it two hours without issue...

Changed oil today in my Coleman Powermate 5K generator with the Subaru Robin engine. Two years since the last OC.

Out: M1 5-30

In: M1 5-30

Changed the oil in the Generator,
out; Supertech 5W30 synthetic
in; Supertech HD30.. much to the dis-satisfaction of myself, but the owner was adament that it(the multi-grade weight..) was the reason the unit would auto-shut off via the oil pressure gauge. To which it then shut off again after ~ 2hours.

I also did this with the pressure washer. I'm standing my ground on the Lawnmower though--mostly because I acutally use it.

O-well, I don't know anything right?

Just finished getting the snowblower ready. 2003 vintage Craftsman with a 5 HP Snow King.

Rebuilt the carb and got it running well. It was nasty thanks to me not draining the gas last year (it wasn't running well then either)
Changed the 2 year old oil and put in a combination of old oil:
Craftsman 30wt and Mobil 5w30.

Runs really well now and will be set for winter.

2006 Craftsman 21" mower with a B&S 125K02 engine (6.75hp). Previous oil change history unknown (owner claimed ignorance on that part, and judging by the glitters in oil, it may not have received 1st oil change (not surprised) afterall.

Prolly have about 20hrs on it (owner only succeeded in using the mower during the 1st 4 seasons to mow the front lawn (no back lawn) and 5th season no-start (ended up in storage).

1st oil change using recycled German castrol 0W30 Syntec... will give it a few more hours of mowing before season is over and will consider replacing with Delo 15W40 isosyn.

Champion 5000 watt generator. Rotella T6 5w40.

The factory fill [10w30] had about one hour on it and had some shiny microscopic metal in it. Pretty typical i think.
