No, SAE 30 and 10W-30 are not the same. SAE 30 is a single-grade oil, meaning it has a consistent viscosity at a specific temperature, typically used in warmer conditions. In contrast, 10W-30 is a multi-grade oil, which means it has a lower viscosity at cold temperatures (the "10W" part) and maintains a viscosity similar to SAE 30 at higher temperatures. This allows 10W-30 to perform better in a wider range of temperatures.

Can you use 10w30 sae 30 oil engine?

I am not sure what you are wanting to use the oil for. If it is for a lawn mower, most of them take either 10w30 or SAE 30. They are not the same oil. You will need to refer to your engine manufacturer for the oil required for your engine. Normally most Briggs and Stratton and Tecumseh engines use the SAE30 oil. While most Kohler engines use 10w30.
