Lawnmowers usually use a straight weight SAE30. You would have to check and see whats recommended for it, i'm not 100% sure of an answer for you sorry.

If your mower has no oil filter then, use none detergent SAF 30w if it has a filter then, you can use a detergent type oil also SAF 30w

You will need to go to a Napa or other full service type parts shop to buy none detergent oil. The quart bottle will say none detergent on it.

In an engine with no oil filter a detergent oil can/will foam up and lose viscosity.
