I have a case 222 and a case 444 I was wondering what's the best weight of motor oil to put in it for the winter in live in northern ohio so the temps can be really cold or mild just depends on mother nature thanks!
Where would a person go to buy 10w oil?(quoted from post at 07:41:44 11/17/18) Based on your post, I would choose 15W30.. You could also go with a straight #10 oil providing you keep a close eye on the dipstick level. Ten weight has a tendency to burn quicker than the straight thirty weight you should be using during the summer.. You can also go to Kohler dot com and find the Operator Manuals for the K-Series engines and read what the factory recommends.
(quoted from post at 14:14:31 11/17/18) Well Bob......... if you choose to use a synthetic oil in your air cooled engine that has no oil filter, then best of luck to you ......IF you have been running a non-detergent oil in that engine for many years. More often than not, the entire internals of that engine will be coated with a sludge and the detergents will quickly begin to dissolve that sludge, thus contaminating the oil within hours of use. As a result, gritty oil will find its way into the main bearing/s and the crankshaft end bearing, quickly destroying them. The same holds true for the camshaft bearings plus the wear and tear on the cam lobes and the lifters. The cylinder wall/s will also be scored badly as a result of this abrasive lubricant being splashed on it, stroke after stroke. Rapid heartbeats, bulging neck veins or strokes might occur when the person taking your advice finds out WHY his engine is destroyed.
