This year my zero turn mower started using oil. I changed it this spring oil and filter. Machine is around 6 years old but only has 148 hours. Uses about 10 oz. per 1.5-2. hrs use. This is a Briggs and Stratton 30hp commercial vertical shaft gas engine. on Simplicity Cobalt zero turn motor?
Plugged vent?
On the old flathead Briggs engines the crankcase ventilator valve would fail and cause bad oil consumption. On the old ones, replacing this little breather valve was cheap and easy, just two screws attach it to the outside of the block. Might be worth a try if they still use this system. |
