No Not another Oil thread!!
I have been running Mobil 1 10w40 in all my gas engines. My lawn mower is now about 10 years old and still runs perfectly. My Snapper ride on is even older than that and is running fine as well. Both are Briggs & Stratton. I think the synthetic holds particles in suspension better than dino especially since my mowers don't have oil filters.
Oh one more thing... I always pull the starter a few times with the ignition off to get the oil circulating before running the engine. I don't know if that helps prevent start up wear or not, but it makes me feel better.
