5 w 30 i thought the abf was a 1- w 40 engine as needs a more slicker oil ( my mecanicaly tems ahah )

 

[vngtx]

10w40 is thicker than 5w30.

 

[gtikezz]

10 40 here too

 

[crossedmike]

ye but thinker takes longer to use doesnt it so the thinner the oil the more it uses and can wear down is this not the case either way i use 10 w 40 and aint let me down yet ha

 

[crossedmike]

10 40 here too

[crossedmike]

[vngtx]

oh right of course. its an old trick to getting the oil flowing the best, take the front bumper off when filling it up and donate the bumper to another member. then when they change the oil they donate theirs to another member and its goes so on and so forth....
