Been running Castrol 30wt and I'm thinking about changing to multiviscosity. Any suggestions? Was thinking about 20-50wt Castrol. socal cold mornings and warm hill climb in the afternoon. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

So please educate me of why you would use Castrol oil on a tappet engine? Are you indicaing the zinc and other additives used in oils (such as Brad-Penn) are not important?
No sarcasm intended, I just am interested to hear your justification. My thanks. Eric |
