I think the last small engine I changed oil on was my push mower. 1977 Lawn Chief 20", 3.5HP B&S. Out Delo 400 SAE 30 In Delo 400 SAE 30. Used no oil between the twice yearly change. Started first pull after sitting all "winter" for the 10th year in a row. Ran like a champ.

Lawnmower with Honda GCV160 Out: Drip oil, Honda Power Equipment 10W-30 & M1 10W-30 mix (~25hrs, 1yr) In: Same I had 1/2 jug of M1 10W-30 left over from a car I no longer own and a few half-quarts of Honda 10W-30 in the garage so I poured it together in the jug and shook it up. After oil changes in my family's vehicles, I let the empty bottles drain into a drip bottle. This is a mix of 0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30, 10W-30 & 10W-40. I pour the drippings into the mower first, then top it up with the 10W-30 mix. Runs great. Clean & clear oil when I change it every the fall. Honda EU2000i Generator Out: Honda & Mobil 1 10W-30 mix (~20hrs, 2yr) In: Same

Hustler zero turn, Kawasaki fr691v, drained peak 10-30 synthetic and put in M1 hm 10-30 synthetic. Bosch 3330 filter. Snapper walk behind, Kawasaki 6.5. Drained peak and put in M1 hm but left the filter. This mower maybe sees 12 hrs a year so I only change the filter every 2.

Honda HRR216VKA Last year, my former neighbors gave this to me as they were very desperate to to move out. It was literally the last minute of the last day they were in the house and had to be out for the new owners. This mower was all they had left to get rid of, so they just gave it to me. It had been used a few times for a couple years without any maintenance (that I know of). So I imagine it was the original 12oz of Honda oil that came with it and was never changed out after the break-in. I got it running smooth and decided to actually use it. I cleaned the obvious stuff, sharpened the blades, and filled with leftover Rotella 15w40; the old oil had a silvery filmy look to it. I used it all last year. This year, I changed it out with Rotella 5w40 to be closer to the spec stated in the manual of 5w30 or 10w30. This model has a fixed throttle, so I bent the arm to give it a slightly higher RPM.
