For the Briggs & Stratton 28M707-0126-01 lawn and garden engine, we use SAE 30 for typical warm-weather mowing, or 10W-30 when temperatures vary and you want easier starting in cooler weather. Fill only to the FULL mark on the dipstick on level ground; do not overfill.

Recommended oil types

• SAE 30: Best for consistently warm outdoor temperatures
• 10W-30: Good all-around choice for changing temperatures
• Synthetic 5W-30: Helps with cold starts and provides strong high-heat protection

How much oil does it take?

Oil capacity varies by the exact engine configuration and oil change method. We use the dipstick as the final authority: add oil slowly and stop at the FULL mark with the engine level.

Quick fill checklist

• Park on a flat surface and let the engine cool
• Drain old oil completely, then reinstall the drain plug securely
• Add oil in small amounts, checking the dipstick often
• Stop at the FULL mark (not above it)
• Run the engine briefly, shut it off, then recheck and top off if needed

Why it matters

Correct viscosity and oil level protect internal parts like the crankshaft and connecting rod under load. Low oil causes overheating and rapid wear; overfilling can cause smoking, plug fouling, and hard starting.
