In France the manual says to use 20W-50 premium quality synthetic diesel oil ($10/quart).
Diesel oil has the proper additive for excessive heat because such engines run hot all day and synthetic oil is hydrophobic i.e. it does not mix with water to form acid. We can also use this oil in the transmission and gearbox for a short time.

I thought it was the sweat dripping from your nut-sac as
you're making it with your Mother's younger sister.
Porking your sister is downright hillbillyistic !!!!!
