Post your latest small engine oil change

SEARS Eager 1 Tecumseh: NAPA 30W

I had a friend that worked for John Deere repairing mowers. He said that you would be sick if you knew how many homeowners never change their lawnmower oil. That was the majority of their engine problems.

After reading a lot of this thread, I decided to do a lawn mower OCI. It's just a cheap Murray mower - 20" cut with B&S 3.5 HP motor. I put in fresh Castrol 10-30.

Was talking to a guy at a local muffler shop about how many people at BITOG use 10-30,. etc.,m in their lawn mower motors, and he said "you should NEVER use 10-30 in a mower motor, period, and when I told him I've learned a lot of good things at BITOG, he looked angry, so I didn't press the issue. After the leftover GTX 10-30 and 10-40 is used up, I'll put Rotella 15-40 in it.
