What kind of engine oil?

#1
Simple question:

3 HP Briggs, 30 weight or 10W-30?

Personally, I like the 10W30 (cause I've got a case of it sitting under the bench) but I was reading on another forum and it says stay with straight 30W...

or does it make a rat's ass of difference?

Oil it right or lose it!

Any aircooled engine used for severe service such as minibike or gokart use should run 30wt or 10w30 synthetic ONLY.It does not matter which viscosity you choose. 10W30 Castrol full synthetic is my choice and my engines live:thumbsup: Prolonged run time on petroleum based oils will cause all kinds of cylinder wear and scuffing.
