In my perfect world I change the oil at the end of the season pending the machine. I run syn right now in everything. My LT does not get much use really but gets pounded when it is used. My Honda gets a good workout every season, some more than others. Now reality is I get to it when I can. C
Honda 928TA, Ariens 924 STE, Toro single stage S-620, 95 Jeep Wrangler with a 6 foot Fisher Plow, many shovels, one 14 year old boy. Craftsman 01 1000 LTX pimp Gold LT 20hp Briggs OHV V-twin. Tough as it is ugly.
