Oil & Fuel Recommendations
Oil
This engine is shipped from Briggs & Stratton without oil.
Before starting engine
, check oil level as shown below.
Change and add oil according to chart below. Do not over-fill.
Use a high quality detergent oil classified “For Service SF,
SG, SH,” such as Briggs & Stratton “warranty certified” SAE
30 oil, Part No. 100005. Use no special additives with
recommended oils. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

* Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive engines. The use of
multi-viscosity oil such as (10W-30, etc.) in ambient temperatures
above 40° F (4°C) will result in higher than normal oil consumption.
If multi-viscosity oil is used, check the oil level more frequently to
prevent any possible engine damage due to lack of lubrication.
** Use of SAE 30 oil below 40° F (4° C) will result in hard starting
and possible engine damage due to inadequate lubrication.
Fuel
Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
of 77 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Fresh fuel prevents
gum from forming in fuel system or on essential carburetor
parts. Purchase fuel in quantity that can be used within 30
days. In countries other than the U.S.A., leaded gasoline may
be used if commercially available and unleaded is unavailable.
We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Gasoline Addi-
tive. (See your Authorized Briggs & Stratton Service Dealer
for Part No. 5041 or the single-use pouch.) See storage
instructions, on page 9.
Note: Some fuels, called oxygenated or reformulated
gasolines, are gasolines blended with alcohols or ethers.
Excessive amounts of these blends can damage the fuel
system or cause performance problems. Do not use gasoline
which contains Methanol. If any undesirable operating
symptoms occur, use gasoline with a lower percentage of
alcohol or ether.
Do not over-fill fuel tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.
Check oil level before starting engine. Add oil as shown below.
Oil capacity is about 1-1/2 quarts (48 ounces or 1.4 liters) if
engine is not equipped
with oil filter.
Oil capacity is about 1-3/4 quarts (56 ounces or 1.7 liters) if
engine is equipped
with oil filter.
Note: Oil capacity will be greater if engine is equipped with
remote oil filter.
After filling with or changing oil, start and run engine at idle for
30 seconds. Shut engine off. Wait 30 seconds and check oil
level. Add oil, if required, to bring level to Full mark on dipstick.
Place engine level.
Clean around oil fill.
Remove dipstick.
Wipe with clean cloth.
Tighten dipstick.
Remove & check.
Tighten dipstick be-
fore starting engine.
Oil level should
be at FULL
mark.
If oil is required, add
slowly. Recheck level.
