Default Small engine oil?

.


Disclaimer: I know very little about oil and I'm trying to learn from the members here what they use. Most of you know much more about engines than I do. I'm just trying to keep my old Cub healthy along with my other equipment.

I've always bought Kohler SAE 30 oil by the quart for my M18 engine and now use it in my Briggs on the zero turn. I also have a small Briggs motor on a pressure washer. I'd like to have just 1 oil for all of them, but will buy different oils if it's better that way.

Do I need to use oil specified for "small engines"? Should I stick with the Kohler oil? Should I quit using Kohler oil? Or is it ok to use Rotella SAE 30 diesel oil?
