Synthetic Oil vs. Pertolium Based Oil
Normally a 30 weight high-detergent oil is the best oil to use in any air
cooled engine. If you use it in the winter time for snow-throwing or plowing 10w30 will be a good choice for the winter. Save your money on the synthetics.

I am contemplating using Castrol Synthetic oil in the new lawn tractor when I change the break in oil. MY QUESTION: Are there are any benefits to using synthetic motor oil in a small air cooled engine........or would I be spending more money for an oil that yields no added benefits over conventional petroleum based John Deere brand oil. |

Synthetic Oil vs. Pertolium Based Oil
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. |

Synthetic Oil vs. Pertolium Based Oil
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.

Synthetic Oil vs. Pertolium Based Oil
Ill keep this simple
actually during the break in period in a engine the asparites of the internal parts of a new engine will wear down until the engine is "BROKEN IN" and the rings seat with cylinder walls and stuff like that.( the asparites are always wearing down throughout the life of a engine) when using synthetic oils the additives in the oil may prevent this from happening and may effect how the engine breaks in as one would say. Not sure what you mean by shavings? or where you got that from . |
