fully synthetic oils --- mistake made please help Sat, 09 July 2005 10:13 Go to next message
Hi,

I recently did an oil change on my 4age 100kw small port and have just realized that i used 5W 40 instead of 15W 40. I used shell helix ultra. the oil pressure is unchanged at all operating rev ranges.

Do you think my engine will be ok?

Thanks,

Ty

meh, no harm done.
depending on where you are, it might be better during the winter time anyway.

depending on how worn the engine is (eg. doesnt burn it) you'll probably find it'll rev a little smoother and 'maybe' use a wee bit less fuel.
i used to run HPR5 (5w40) in my ~90- 100,XXX + k 4agze.
