Yes this might not be the cheapest oil, but at least you can rest assured that it is the exact correct oil for your B&S. This 48 oz. bottle is the correct amount of oil for OHV engines typically found in riding mowers. There is also an 18 oz. bottle used for the smaller L-head engines found in push mowers. My local home and garden store only carried the 18 oz. size, so rather than having to buy 3 smaller bottles and having an odd amount left I bought the 48 oz. size.
When changing the oil, my particular engine took a little less than the full bottle, so I have a little extra to use for topping-off the oil during the season. I can't say too much about the oil other than it works fine! My 17 year-old engine isn't complaining and still runs great!
FYI, if you care not to buy B&S oil just about any detergent SAE 30 oil will do. Avoid multi-grade oils like 10W-30 in these engines.

There is nothing fancy about this oil. It is just an over priced SAE30 oil. This oil is actually made by Olympic Oil, a smallish North American oil company that also makes Ace Hardware oil which is considerably cheaper than this oil.Also, for approximately 5 or more years now, Briggs & Stratton no longer recommend SAE30 oil as their top oil recommendation. Briggs number one oil recommendation is now synthetic 5W30 oil for all their small engines. Go to their website and search for recommended oil if you don't believe me. Synthetic oil consumes less and keeps the engine cleaner while leaving less deposits on the valves and piston rings. Also, synthetic oil can be found at any big box retailer or parts store for about $4 to $5 a quart.
