Detergent! Do not use non-detergent oil.
NO!!!! Absolutely not.
yes
No, because the oil is for cars! :-)
Detergent oil has added chemicals to clean and control sludge formation. Non-detergent is plain oil. Unless you have a really old engine that hasn't been apart for 50 years you want to use detergent oil.
No. Do not use in your car. It is for use in some lawn mowers and aircompressor motors.
any quality bar oil will work fine.
No, absolutely not. Use SAE 10w30 high detergent oil. Non-detergent oil will destroy the engine.
NO, not in any lawnmower made in the last 40 years. Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W30 detergent oil.
Absolutely not. Use 10w30 high detergent oil just like you use in your lawn mower or vehicle.
30 weight non-detergent oil is what was used in the 20s. But you can and should use SAE 30 High Detergent oil today as it will provide many benefits. If you have been using non-detergent oil then there is more than likely a sludge buildup in the engine at this time. You should not switch to High Detergent oil unless the engine has been rebuilt and totally cleaned. The reason is that the HD oil will loosen all this sludge and contaminate your crankcase. So, if you know the engine is clean then use SAE 30W otherwise use 30W non-detergent oil.
Absolutely, positively, no! Non-detergent oil will destroy the engine over time. Use SAE 10W30 oil. I recommend synthetic oil in any Air Cooled engine.
