We r on our trip south and when I start it it runs ok for about 5 min then will almost die but then revs right back up again. Some times every 5 to 10 seconds or maybe 40 to 60. Never dies completel...

What kind of oil should I replace with. Syn or regular.
I use conventional 10w40 oil as spec'd in the manual. I buy Valvoline 5 qt jugs when it's on sale, lasts a few seasons. Last sale was a buy one get one free, so 10 qts of oil for $22 bucks, will last my gens a long time.
I suppose you could use Syn but what's the point? These small engines aren't pumping oil anywhere through tiny passages, valves, filters, etc, they just splash a little around from the oil pan as the crank rotates.
