I would never use 10w for anything other then a lubicator for Electric Motor bearings, or other light use friction related issues, good for the chain lube of a chain saw, 90w is used in auto rear ends, a multi oil such as 10w-40w is common in auto crankcases, but straight 10w in a crankcase is a no no,,,even lawnmowers use 30w, or a 10w-30w but never a straight 10w

Can 10W-40 engine oil be used in the Briggs and Stratton 4-stroke lawnmower?

The user's guide to my 130 series B&S engine (garden cultivator) says: 10W-40 can be used if 10W-30 is not available at your location. So, if you fit to the 10W-30 oil temperature interval then 10W-40 can be used. On the other hand lawnmower is usually used at spring-summer temperatures so why not to use SAE30 oil?
