what i'm gathering from the few posts I'm finding around the internet is I can use any SAE 10W-30 engine oil (preferably synthetic) for my 50cc moped which I purchased a few weeks ago (manual calls for SAE 10W-30, doesn't get any more specific). Yet, I've noticed that many manufacturers produce engine oil that specifically states "4 Stroke" on the bottle. So is alright to use regular engine oil instead of searching the high seas for a store that carries bottles which specifically state "4-stroke"?

thanks in advance.
