A Briggs and Stratton 17.5 horsepower engine can use any type of small engine motor oil. A heavy duty motor oil is recommended.
SAE30
Briggs and Stratton is a select brand of lawn mower. When oiling one's Briggs and Stratton lawn mower engine, it is best to use a high quality oil. One can find such an oil at their local home improvement store, such as Home Depot.
yes, i use them on my 17-1/2 hp briggs,
No, absolutely not. Use SAE 10w30 high detergent oil. Non-detergent oil will destroy the engine.
SAE 30 weight full synthetic oil.
For the engine, not the pump, 10W-30 is what Briggs puts in them, but SAE 30 is acceptable if your are not running the pressure washer in cold temperatures. I highly recommend you use synthetic oil in any air cooled engine.
Use SAE 30 weight. I highly recommend you use Synthetic oil in any air cooled engine.
I use straight 30 weight in all my briggs engines. It works well in most all temp ranges
SAE 30 weight in the summer or SAE 10w30 if you use the engine in cool temperatures.
4 cycle! Automobiles are 4 stroke engines. chain saws snowmobiles and leaf blowers are examples of 2 stroke engines. If engine has an oil pan, or oil filter, it is a 4 stroke. if it does not have an oil pan, it is 2 stroke. Briggs and Stratton are 4 stroke motors.
If it has a Briggs and Stratton engine you need SAE30. If it is a Kohler it uses 10W30.
