Stupid oil question

[bluesvt]

Been running 10w 30 mobile 1 and got 5w 30 today b/c thats all they had. Still alright to run that, it won't make a difference right? I know do not switch back to reg motor oil once you run systhetic but did not know if changing the weight mattered.

I've heard the same thing about switching back from synthetic from numerous sources. I'm no mechanic, by any stretch, but I wouldn't advise it - based upon conventional wisdom.

I've been running Royal-Purple 5w-20 since break-in on my new '02 L at 3k change-intervals with ~1 qt. consumption every 1k miles. This is normal by SVT Tech-Support guidelines, evidently.:cool:

I may go Mobil 5w-20 engine-oil now that they offer it, but I would be running RP transmission-fluid, but I'm too OCD to have two different major-brands of oils running in Suzie to permit that. :tongue:
