[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) The mower I got from my grandpa has never had an oil change and it still works as of last week. Your mower will almost certainly be fine. Now my pressure washer... I forgot to empty the gas from my pressure washer before storing it for several years and it became mucky glorp inside. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] icedterminal@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago I would be cautious with this thought process though. Oil cools, lubricates and cleans the engine. These engines are air cooled so keep that in mind. Degraded oil can't do the job very well. permalink fedilink source parent
