30 w if the temp. does not exceed 80 degrees. over that you my want to use 10/30 Using 10w30 at higher temperatures will increase oil consumption and likely void your warranty. Use straight 30 w at high temps, and 5w30 or 10w30 at lower temps (40 or below). An alternative is 5w30 synthetic, which is warranty-rated for use at all temperatures.

Who does Briggs and stratton contract to build their snapper mowers?

Briggs and Stratton does contract anyone to build mowers. The mower manufacturers contract Briggs and Stratton to build their engines (or whatever engine is on the unit). That is why you can have a Briggs and Stratton on most any type of mower. Same is true for Kohler, Tecumseh, etc. Not to say that the engine manufacturers do not build their own type of outdoor power tool but as the question states "snapper mower". Also keep in mind that if you have a snapper mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine and you need warranty work on the engine you need to go to an Authorized Briggs repair facility where as if you have a mower warranty then you need to go to an authorized repair facility for the mower manufacturer.
