Should I go back to the 10w40? I have heard that it is too much of a
viscosity span so I went with a standard weight. Plus I got the new
valvoline max life (cause they were out of the regular), I hope its new
cleansers and things are ok for a unfiltered engine. Now that I think of
it maybe I should change it out.
Thanks.
