Think so? I was rather counting on M1's ability to float and crud around so I
could drain it out later. Unlike a bigger engine with a serious sump theres not
really anywhere good for the crud to settle out to in a small engine.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] 300E oil question (I almost hate to ask this!)
For small engines like that with no oil filter a non-detergent oil is
generally recommended. They don't suspend dirt so much, so it tends to
settle out instead of remaining in suspension with nothing to ever
filter it out.
Is there a Mobil-1 for small engines?
