cheers Smile
what is 20-50W ? mine one was 10W- 50W (It mention less wear to the engine)

so large W stands for hotter weather ?


W is Winter (not Warm Wink )

lower number = thinner... but at room temp, 20 is actually thicker than 50 at operating temp....

pick your W number based on starting temp (20 is ok, 10 for neg temps), and then the bigger number based on engine wear. 40 for modern, 50 for normal, 60 for worn..

hows that for a short guide Razz
