 Something weird is going on in this forum. There was a reply to this post, but now it has disappeared. There is no "button" to allow deletions or editing of one's posts. Did a moderator take it out? Why?

Check Honda USA at http://www.hondapowerequipment.com/HH_PC_CM_OWN/cm_own.htm and download the owner's manual.

Diesel oil is formulated for diesels. Use the automotive oil specified in the manual for your mower.

I have a Honda snowblower with a hydro transmission, and there is no maintenance whatsoever, on that drive, including no requirement to change fluid. It may be the same for your mower. Those hydro drives are pretty rugged and they aren't really worked very hard in the snowblower, so the oil never needs changing.

On the Honda Canada website, a new one retails for $679 Cdn pesos.

To get this back on topic before it results in an exchange of comments on parentage, I don't use anything other than regular.

Reasons? These are low compression engines. They don't need higher octane fuel. It doesn't make them perform with greater power, but it does drain your wallet a little more. I used to think that higher octane cleaned your engine of deposits or prevented them from forming, but some reading I done recently showed that it isn't so.
