I'm not starting a debate. Heck, with you, I wouldn't have a snowball's chance!!
;-) Well, unless I was RIGHT!! LOL!!
But remember a year ago or so I mentioned the Crown Vic getting 2 or 3 less mpg
overall when it had 10-30 in it rather than the recommended 5-30? That happened
with two different oil changes, far apart in time.
I agree, the oil should be the same viscosity when it is hot, but how do you explain
the difference in mpg?
