Use a 5w-30 or 10w-30 motor oil with an engine break-in additive (ZDDP or zinc camshaft additive), especially with flat tappet camshafts.
Can I use 5w30 instead of SAE 30?
5w-30 is fine to use. It has the same flow rate as SAE30 at normal operating temps. The way oil works is, the first number is flow rate at ambient temp.
Is 10W-30 the same as SAE 30?
Yes, you can make use 10W30 engine oil instead of the SAE30 in your Lawn Mower. Older engines can use the SAE30, while the 10W30 is for modern engines. Again, the SAE30 is better for warmer temperatures while the 10W30 is suitable for varying temperature ranges and also works well in cold weather.

What kind of oil do I need for my Chevy 350?
Tiny dirt particles between 10 and 20 microns do much of the damage to bearings, cylinders and other moving engine parts by rubbing and causing wear. For the Chevy 350, oil filters from brands like Delco and Fram are recommended because they carry the society of American Engineers, or SAE, seal of approval.
What kind of engine does a Chevy 350 have?
It uses the same basic engine block that other Chevy cars use, albeit with a few key differences. The Chevy 350 is called a small-block engine because, compared to its other Chevy engine cousins, it’s relatively smaller at 262 cubic inches to 400 cubic inches of displacement, or 4.3L to 6.6L engines respectively.
What kind of oil do you use in an engine?
Motor oil also neutralizes naturally-occurring acids in the engine. Sulfur that’s present in gasoline can react with water and oxygen, creating sulfuric acid, which is corrosive and very damaging to your engine.
What should the oil pressure be on a 350 Eng?
In really hot weather I used to run 20/50, 10/40 the rest of the year (both specified in the owner’s manual), but only because I know that ring and bearing clearances were loose when I put it back together. The higher viscosity helped maintain better oil pressure.
