How to change lawn mower oil for most push and self propelled mowers. It's easier than you think...when was the last time you changed it? Should be today if you don't remember.
It's important to check your oil before every mow. Add a tad if it's low on the dip stick. If the oil is dark, it's time to change it. These small engines don't have oil filters so it's important to have fresh oil in there.
**I change the oil every couple weeks so the expired oil I use in this video isn't a concern, but I wouldn't use any expired oil in your car or as a long term oil.
Very cheap to maintain a lawnmower properly with oil changes every couple of months depending on how many hours you're running the mower. They hold a small amount of oil, about $2 worth and that's it. No other fluids, parts, filters needed.
Before starting, make sure you know your lawnmowers oil capacity and the required oil grade. Most mowers have a "FULL" and or "ADD" line on the dip stick if you don't know the specific oil capacity.

Used in this video was a cheap jug of expired 10W30 Pennzoil (non-synthetic) oil which is suitable for most 4-stroke lawnmowers. Available here: #ad amzn.to/3w6jHiD
