I have seen this question come up in the car newsgroups. They said to use
regular oil until the engine breaks in, and then go with synthetic oil. If
you use Synthetic oil from the start, it is suppose to not break in right,
like metal shaving problem? I don't know if this is true, but just passing
along the info. Ryan

good luck with using 10w30 in a snowblower when the temp drops
to -32(which
it does here) unless you have the unit in a heated shed it will never
start.
