I have portions of a lawn on somewhat steep side slopes. In the early '90's I bought a John Deere self propelled mower that was powered with 2-stroke engine. This mower finally gave out after 20 or so years. This week I started to look for a new 2-stroke but apparently they do not make them anymore .

So... will a 4-stroke engine work okay on the side slopes (about 30 degrees) and not suffer from oil starvation? What about a pressurized oil system or will the side slopes be hard on that too?

Thanks...

I've got a Husky 4 stroke, and have a few areas with 30 degrees or so and have never had any problems with hesitation.Good luck!
