I have to agree on that. Here we are with 118 post with no real answer. I have seen other forums with the same problem. My personal opinion on oil is if a engine is well maintained it really don't matter what oil you use. You might get some oil burning on some of the lighter weight oils but should be ok if you watch it. I live in a neighbor hood with rich buy a mower till it stops then buy another. You can get some nice deals if you don't mine replacing a engine. That also makes for some mower salvage yards around this part of the country which I find handy for used parts.

I think we have come to the best answer on oil is use what ever you like as long as you change it when it's time and use the proper weight for your conditions.

Hey your post was 121, I think this thread should be good for at least 200 and even at that nobody's gonna agree on anything.
 
I think we can agree that the topic of oil gives us something to argue about. We get to practice being witty and sarcastic.
 
The thing I hate about using Amsoil in the winter months, is that the engines run so cool that ice crystals form on the exhaust manifold and valve and cause piston damage......
