After last weekends snow storm in which my new Ariens 11528le performed flawlessly, I am now thinking about doing the breakin oil change, and was wondering should I use a regular or synthetic oil? What would a synthetic do for me? I am in the habit of changing the oil in my snowblower and running her dry at the end of each season, and have been doing so since I was 10yrs old.
Any advice would be appreciated, because I am not familiar with synthetic oils, but seem to see them mentioned her a lot.
