I have two machines that get intermittent use, both with 2cyl gas 4 cycle engines. One is a ztr mower that gets used about 20 times during the summer. The other is a Gillette generator that gets used 2 or 3 times a year. I am thinking of using synthetic oil in both but have heard that this oil does not coat as well as pet. oils and that the motors could rust internally during long term storage. Has anybody had any experience with this?
