The Tecumseh is a four-stroke cycle engine, air cooled. Mobil says
that the oil is stable at 465 degrees or so, though I don't know what
that really means since I don't know the temp at which the air-cooled
engine operates. Harley Davidson is said to be recommending it for some
engines, though. Perhaps someone has some HD information to share.
