Snapper Lawn Mower Oil Change
I just bought a used snapper with a B&S 6hp motor. I always do my
own oil changes, but for the life of me I can't find the drain plug. How do I remove old oil? Tip it over? |

It's usually on the bottom of the engine, in the deck blade area. That is what I have always had on my other mowers. No drain plug on the bottom, and nothing on the side (like my snow blower) |

Go tohttp://www.snapper.com/residential.html# Click on Publications, and fill in the model number. You'll see a manual with instructions. Well son of gun! It said to turn the mower upside down and drain through the fill hole. Thanks for the web site! |

Most of the newer B&S engines don't have a drain plug. You have to turn it over. I think they save about 25 cents by eliminating it. -- Art |
