Default How to tell if oil needs to be changed?

And use good brand of oil. Cheap oil doesn't work in air cooled
engines. My personal favorite is Castrol. In my last truck, it was the
only brand that quieted my piston rod knock for more than two days
after an oil change.

You have to starve them.

Sounded like a troll to me too, but there really are 4 cycle leaf
blowers. John Deere makes one.

If this was a real question, the answer is:
Change the damn oil.
