For a 22 hp Briggs & Stratton Intek engine, it is typically recommended to use SAE 30 weight oil for warmer temperatures or SAE 10W-30 for a wider range of temperatures, including colder conditions. Always refer to the owner’s manual for specific oil recommendations based on the engine's usage and environmental conditions. Ensure the oil meets API service classification requirements for optimal performance.
