As the seal begins to wear, it may spring a small leak causing a thin layer of grease or transmission fluid to cover the area immediately around the seal.

Briggs & Stratton Corp. plans to close two manufacturing plants and reduce operations at a third site, citing falling demand for its outdoor power equipment.

Briggs is a good brand with a quality reputation so I’m very confident using this oil. Changing lawn mower oil after so many hours or when it is dirty on the dipstick is always a good way to extend the life of your mower…..which most people don’t do.
