slack, welcome.
this thread won't last long since this question has been asked and answered a gazillion times.


short answer: depends on where you live. some opt for slightly heavier oil than the 5w-20 recommended.
I use 10w-30 but it's a rotary so it'll pretty much run on anything you put in there.
