The terms 4 stroke, and 4 cycle, have the same meaning. There is no difference in the oil.
no
4cycle
it's lubricating properties
what type oil to use on 4stroke 2.5mercury outboard
No. A four stroke uses regular gasloine and has a separate place to add the motor oil.
I can't imagine that would make much difference. The different weights of oil affect the durability of the oil in the long term and its performance in high or low temperatures. hi just to let everyone know i went ahead and used the 10w40 oil instead of the 10w30 that is suggested in the ryobi petrol lawnmower manual and it worked perfectly i have a 140cc 4stroke petrol lawnmower model no RLM140SP thanks steed69
the main difference is a two stroke has oil mixed into the gas weather it is oil injected or pre mixed(adding oil to gas yourself). a two stroke has no intake or exhaust valves,no pushrods,or rockerarms. intake and exhaust into the combustion chamber in done through the sides of the cyllinder walls.
SAE 10w30 Full Synthetic any major brand.
Absolutly!
The main difference between 10W-40 oil and 15W-40 oil is that 15W-40 oil has a higher viscosity than 10W-40 oil. 10W-40 oil allows the engine to run freely.
oil+gas=2stroke gas only in the tank=4stroke
This would depend on what type of oil you will be using for your premix. The oil base stock is either petroleum, semi-synthetic or synthetic oil and is mixed with gas at a ratio ranging from 16:1 (petroleum) to as high as 100:1 (synthetic). I personally ride a 2001 Kawasaki KDX200 that I run Yamalube 2R at 36:1 with no problems. Although synthetics say you can mix them at 100:1 I would not, that seems way too lean to me.
