I will be using a 20W-50 synthetic in my genset because I don't want to have to change oil every time I travel to a different climate. If I leave my house where the average temp is in the 60's and travel through the Mountains, to Desert, out to the Coast, and back home, I would have to carry 4 different grades of oil in order to follow the manual to the letter.
I exchanged e-mails with Paul Cole from Champion. He agreed that 20W-50 would be best for me to use in my 46535 Champion for my climate conditions. My ambient temps would range from 30 to 120 degrees F for anywhere that I would travel. Single grade oils are not always available in 40W or 50W. Therefore the 20W-50 will be used year-round with no further thinking required.
