How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?

We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :

ENGINE OIL GRADE: HONDA: SAE10W-30 SUBARU SAE10W-30 ENGINE OIL CAPACITY: 20 oz.
10W-30 Engine Oil.
Most pressure washer pumps use a 30w non-detergent oil. This is because most pressure washer pumps use splash lubrication. This is a process that includes rotating “dippers” that throw oil into the pistons and cylinders.
SAE 10W-30 or SAE 10W-40 are oils that are useful in both hot summer and cold winter days. For example, if you are looking to use your pressure washer and the temperatures are about 40 degrees (F) or less, SAE 10W-30 will be your failsafe option. Anything about 40 degrees, it can still be your best option.
Description: Chevron Supreme SAE 5W30 motor oil is ideal for use in pressure washers that use four-stroke gasoline engines.
Suitable for use where a straight 15w40 Non-Detergent oil is specified for use in various makes and models of pressure pumps. This high quality oil is blended from virgin base oils and carefully selected additives to help protect washer pumps from corrosion and oxidation.
Is SAE 30 Oil The Same As 10W-30? No. Unlike SAE 30, SAE 10W-30 is multi grade oil. SAE 10W-30 has SAE 10W viscosity at a lower temperature and SAE 30 viscosity at a hotter operating temp.
Yes. 5w30 and 10w30 are both 30 weight oils and the exact same thickness in your engine when it is at operating temperature.
Honda recommends . 58 quarts or . 55 liters of oil for the GCV160`s air-cooled 4-stroke overhead cam engine.
Overfilling oil may cause smoking, hard starting, spark plug fouling, and oil saturation of the air filter. Do not run the pressure washer before connecting and turning on the water supply failing to do so will result in damage to the pump.
On the other hand, the slightly thicker oil,10W-30, provides better lubrication for commercial vehicles and heavy-load engine cars. Even though this multi grade engine oil can be used in a colder temperature, it`s better suited for warmer weather.
Synthetic oils may be used; however, any motor oil used in our engines must meet all oil requirements as stated in the owner`s manual. In addition, recommended oil change intervals must be followed.
However, the difference comes from the additive package. Today, most engines are designed and tuned for a specific oil viscosity, and switching to a higher viscosity oil can put too much pressure on your engine. It can also affect your vehicle performance, mileage, and fuel economy.
You should always use the oil recommended by your vehicle`s manufacturer. However, 5w30 oil can function in temperatures as low as -30ºC and as high as 35ºC, making it an ideal choice if you drive your car in a place with relatively high seasonal temperature variations.
Yes, it is perfectly safe for you to mix 5W-30 and 10W-30 engine oils. Thanks to their close viscosity, mixing the two oils will have no damaging effect on the engine.
Since 5W-30 and 15W-40 are two different grades, with differing thickness, they cannot be used interchangeably. Most of the time, 15W-40 is suitable for diesel engines, and it has a lot of anti-wear additives. On the other hand, 5W-30 is often recommended for petrol engines and has a different additive profile.
Mobil Agri Super™ 15W-40 is a high performance, multi-functional lubricant for most farm equipment applications. This STOU lubricant provides good performance in diesel and gasoline engines, transmissions, hydraulics, final drives and oil-immersed brakes operating in agricultural service.
Nope. SAE 10W30 is an oil that has SAE 10W viscosity(thickness) at low temperatures, and SAE 30 viscosity at high temperatures. The W stands for `Winter`.
If you drive a Honda, the best type to use is the Honda Genuine Motor Oil because it is specifically formulated for your model while meeting the brand`s engineering standards.

My honda gx110 water pump has been sitting outside for a year and now wont start.. I’ve bled it, changed the oil and refuelled, still no success! (plug seems ok) any suggestions? cheers
ANSWER : There is a very good possibility that corrosion has locked up the float. I would try removing the cover/bowl and make sure the float isn’t stuck. With all of the other things you’ve done this is my best guess.
Good luck!

I bought a troybuilt pressure washer used and i changed the motor oil and ran it maybe 5 minutes.
later i checked the oil level again and it shot out the cap and i noticed the pump oil level is also almost to the top of sight glass. Does anyone know whats wrong?
ANSWER : If you left it sit for a while & did not turn the fuel tap off,it may have flooded and therefore the oil level would have risen causing the oil to over flow.

always turn the fuel tap off when not using your pressure wahser.
