Ok, D^2 you don't like viscosity additives, I can understand that, but since
the 5 is when cold and the 30 when hot why shouldn't they act the same in
hot weather? Obviously that is ignoring any problem with the viscosity
additives.
I was told 5w30 was recommended for my 2.2, but the book says no so I'm
sticking with 10-30, 10-40. I was going to put that 0W30 in my'cuda that
sits a lot, but I figure with all the leaking it isn't worth it.
Thanks everybody,
Rob
