synthetic oil again...oops
Original Message   Feb 9, 2005 5:37 pm
been reading about oils and even posting about it lately .so i decided to do a bit of investigating.

picked up my latest briggs update manual... 2004 vintage.

and inside was a nice bragg about their synthetic oil.

they say they are at the time of printing the only ones selling a synthetic oil for air cooled engines.and they go on to whine about how much better it is when your engine is hot .

every other synthetic oil is supposedly for liquid cooled engines.

so folks im curious ,what does your bottle of synthetic oil say on the side.

lets hear about it

later chris

ps my snowblower just has regular 5w30 and its fine.

The best thing to keep an engine in good shape is to starting it once a week all year long.
