Well, at 144Kmi I think having fresh oil in it over the winter and running
same the following year has been OK with this engine.
All DINO oil of course :-)

He nevertheless has the right idea... you should never leave old oil
in an engine over the winter. But I don't like the idea of ever
leaving an engine with no oil, condensation might cause
problems. Put some el-cheapo oil in for storage, and change it out
in the spring before you start it.. You can save the el-cheapo oil
for the following winter if you like, if the engine isn't run with it in.
