[AT] B&S engine oil

[Larry Goss]

Some manufacturer's hyper-ventilate over which oil is used and even go to the trouble of testing the residue on blown engines that come back on warranty claims. But I think the bottom line is that if an engine has pressure oiling (has an oil filter) you can use multi-viscosity oil in it.  If it doesn't, use single viscosity oil.

Noticed yesterday in a shop which sells B&S stuff: a sign saying "Use
*only* monograde oil in your B&S engine.  DO *not* use multigrade oils"

Why? Anyone know?

Which Oil Demon will get me if I use multigrade?
