Here it is. This is what Yamaha includes in their golf cart tuneup kit: oil, spark plug, two air filters, and fuel filter for carburetor carts.

Hi, do you have the name of the mobile guy to do oil changes? I am on my second stay here in the villages and would like to get the oil changed. Thanks, Mike Zaharoff.

Rod bearings and piston rings take a lot of abuse in a golf cart engine from constant stop/start shock loads. I would not use an ILSAC rated oil in these engines. Use HDEO like Rotella 10w30 or even 15w40 with their high wear additives like molybdenum, phosphorus, and zinc.
Yamalube 10w30 will be fine even in the summer heat. I hear a lot of rod/piston slap during takeoff from golf cart engines that haven't had regular oil changes |

They probably get it wholesale and mark it up, just like any other business to stay in business.

The noise might be the result of decreases in the operating temperature viscosity as the oil ages. Synthetics behave better than conventional oils in this regard. I suspect many people don't follow the manufacturer's recommendation on oil changes.

I suspect many don’t know where the dip stick is?
