I was wondering what type of gas and oil I need to use for my Honda HR173 lawn mower because I have been hearing that is uses SAE10W-30 Motor oil and some say it uses a special type of oil.Bye thanks!;)Also the Model number on the lawn mower is:MA2R-1021245
And no I don't have the manual.
 
2 cycle engines use 2 cycle engine oil, and that oil is mixed with the gasoline. Any 2 cycle oil is fine.

4 cycle engines use standard motor oil - typically, 10W30 is just fine.

And in either engine, plain old 87 octane gasoline is just fine.

Many lawnmowers use 30W instead of 10-30W since motors run much higher than car engines. 10-30W runs way too thin with the motor running at 300F. Read the manual if you still have it.
