Well, wouldn't surprise me in the least if Briggs is buying it from them. Who know's?
Briggs even went so far as to void warranties, if you didn't use there oil. But they dropped the requirement, was only a one year thing.
I still use it, for there generators only because it's easier to just use there oil as it comes standard in all there tuneup kits.
But, everything else...I use Kendall, even there greases are really good.
