Dang it, I didn't mean to start another oil thread... Some swear by it and some swear at it... I think it varies depending on the engine... Soon after I bought it, I switched to synthetic (I also converted it to a conventional spin-on oil filter). It seemed to pick up a little power when I did that. I hadn't had it long enough to know if it used oil before. Allegedly, it had been "completely gone through" before I bought it. But I can tell, if they did, they didn't really "fix" anything that wasn't broken. I can watch the king pins flop back and forth about a quarter inch as I'm going down the field. So I know they didn't fix that. I also keep it well greased and I go though about two tubes of grease every summer (but that also includes the bushhog)...
