How often do you guys change the oil in your equipment?

I try to change it in my lawn tractor about once per month, I put 15 hours on it per week. I just changed the oil in everything today.

I change mine every Saturday.
And my filter once a month. I was using a WIX. Now I use K&N

(( racing is the only sport that you need two balls ))

Yep, that's what I use. Used to use Pennzoil, switched to Mobil 1 Full Syth. 10W-30. Guy down the road kept preaching to me about how Pennzoil is bad, so I finally switched.

Once a mowing season, at the end of the season, which for me is probably about 50 hrs. of operation. Amsoil Small Engine oil, and a new filter if applicable.
