Vanguard Oil remains effective longer than a semi-synthetic or mineral-based oil product, according to Briggs & Stratton. The zinc ingredient provides anti-wear protection, the company says, while a high-quality detergent ensures lower engine deposits.

Vanguard Oil is suitable for use in outdoor temperatures up to 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Its cold starting properties go as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

Briggs & Stratton says the new oil is warranty-certified and suitable for use in air-cooled 4-cycle small engines. It is recommended for use in lawn and garden equipment and pressure washers, the company says, and is especially effective in continuous use commercial and/or industrial equipment such as zero-turn riders, lawn tractors, stand-on mowers and wide-area-walk mowers.
