1/2 quart, and don't over fill. If you over fill, sometimes it will lock up the engine due to a hydrolic lock. But as it only takes a half quart, check the oil each time before using the equipment. 1/2 quart is not very much and if you fail to check it each time, you could end up burning up an engine. You don't have to check the gas; it won't run with out it, but an engine will run a while with NO OIL, until it seizes up. Then you have a big expense to contend with.

Briggs & Stratton recommends high quality detergent straight 30 weight but this can result in hard starting and may damage the engine at colder (below 40 F) temps. Multi-viscosity standard automotive oils (5w-30, 10w-30, etc.) are acceptable but will result in very high oil consumption at ambient temperatures over 40 F, and may void your warranty. High quality synthetic multi-viscosity oils are best for all temperatures.
B&S does not specify compression readings. Look for 120, give or take 20. More important than actual compression is the difference between the 2 cylinders.
You need to specify the engine model/ series. It could be any where from 160in lbs. to 220 in lbs. or 35 ft lbs.
two stroke will make it quik but its sore on petrol/oil and it wont last long........it also depends on wat size.....a 2 stroke shouldn't be more than 35 hp..........4 stroke is good mayb 1 cylinder No stick with a Briggs and stratton 8 hp or Higher, mine has a 12.5 and it awesome for off road
Draining it is free, but putting new oil and a filter on the car is about $19-35.
almost 35-40 liters
5 quarts.
one pint of oil per 6 gallons of gas 50:1
to fill the tank i think 35 gallons
is it 35 to 40 p s i more is ok, but not better.
depends on what ratio you run it on. I run mine in 35:1 which means when I put 5liters of petrol in I put 140mL on oil in.
remove spark plug, remove air cleaner and hold hand over top of carburettor and pull start cable a few times , then reassemble and restart, also check fuel quality, ie water contamination
