2013 Toro 721E Snowblower

Out: 5W30 Amsoil SS
In: 5W30 Red Line

Not sure if it'll make any difference but I liked the idea of a higher HTHS (3.7 vs 3.11) and more ZDDP

Changed oil today in my 2012 Craftsman rider with a 21 HP B&S engine. No oil consumption with this OCI.

Out: M1 10-30

In: M1 10-30

Filter: MC FL 910S

Craftsman T3200 42" mower. Did not keep track of hours but 2 seasons on PYB 5w30 and a Fram Extra guard 3600 or 3614. Whichever the larger than stock filter is but not the long can.

In went Co-op DMO 10w30 CK4. Same oil as my 3500 uses.

I left the filter on as she's a big can. The oil was quite dark but not full on black.

I dropped the K46 as well. Drained out the Motomaster 5w50 (Shell made flavor) and inspected the top magnet. Not bad at all. Will probably still rip it open for an inspection and magnet clean. I changed the fluid late 2016, which was black and full of wear metal. This oil came out a little darker than it went in.

Doesn’t look like a small engine to me . Unless it’s a 4 cylinder .

Oh yeah. Wrong forum!!

John Deere 425 water cooled Kawasaki 20hp engine, out ST 15w40 HDEO
In Delo 30wt HDEO SL rated.
Thought I'd give straight 30 a try and see how it runs. I can't usually tell any difference, but I have no need for multi vis oil as it's only used in spring, summer, fall so 30 should be a good bet.

2006 Craftsman YS4500 rider mower:

Out: Don't recall. Did change it last year though.
In: 32oz of SuperTech Heavy Duty 30w. Didn't forget the MMO. Also replaced the oil filter and air filter.

 

[cvlw]

Rotella T6 15w40 in the gallon container. One type in one container to rule them all (and not a bunch of partials laying around). I wasn't used to the wide-mouth pour spout, so, I basically rust-proofed everything cuz I thought I could aim. It could be used to top off vehicles in an absolute pinch, too.

Honda push mower with gcv160, drained T6 5w40... It seemed thicker than the 15w40 going in for some reason.

John Deere 316 Onan, drained T4 15w40. It wasn't in use the past year+ as I needed to repair the fuel line. When it failed I was just done dealing with things so it wasn't winterized, either. I just used the pusher and got a lot of exercise which was kinda nice... err... necessary.

Thats right, don’t forget the part of the oil change that’s just about 100% opposite the HDEO...

2004 JD 737. Kawasaki FH 680 engine 23 hp. Awesome mower!! A great balance of power and speed. Cuts grass really nice.
Out: 2 quarts of unknown weight, dark but not beyond the point of no return
In: 2 quarts M1 15w50 and a Champ oil filter.
This engine works hard and gets pretty warm. It sat for a couple years. Someone did a repower. Glad they installed a Kawi but the job was a little sloppy. The mower is in good shape for it's vintage. I'm going through it to get it back in service. Grease needed everywhere, new tires ordered, a little wire harness repair, new seat. The hydros were maintained. Will adjust valves and add an oil cooler. I just might keep it!!
