It's that time of year again!
Original Message   Nov 22, 2005 5:43 pm
Once again the time had come to haul out the chain saw for firewood and get the blower ready for old man winter.                                                                                                  It's also time to change the oil in your mowers and paint the underside of the decks as well as shine up weed whackers and leaf blowers and get them put away for another year. 

One question,  I have put a full synthetic 10W30 oil in my lawn tractor instead of the regular 30 weight oil.  I don't run my tractor in the winter but I want good protection in the summer.  Is 10W30 a good choice of grade?  Will this grade work in my push mower as well? 

While we're on the subject is 5w30 a good oil for the blower I have (Ariens 11528)? Is synthetic OK ?

Thanks for any replies and advice you all may have.
