I've been researching oil for quite some time now and this is what I came up with. I too have owned a lot of small engines and I also use synthetic oil In most of what I own now. With that being said when I did use dino oil or synthetic for that matter I have never had a oil related problem. Have you? Use the correct api rating and weigh of oil and you can use the cheapest oil you can find AS LONG AS YOU CHANGE IT REGULARLY. Thats the important thing getting the impurities out from all the blow by and moisture. Imo synthetic is better for cold temps on start up.

Pappa, you're right! I have never had an oil related problem either! Been driving, mowing, cutting, running on water since the 1950s - nary one single oil problem in all those years! Except for a 1953 Oldsmobile I had leaked a bit...
