I was just wondering what the factory oil weight was......5w30 or is it 5w20. I picked up some 5w20 the other day jus wanna make sure its not too thin

 

from the factory its 5w-30

 

oh damm..i always put 10w 30 in my car. once i put 20w 50

 

i put 20w-50 in mine...but its older...it stopped it from leaking though. and doens't burn as bad anymore.

 

yea i was told the thicker, the better..am i wrong?

 

depends on the application...i find it to be better for the older engines but if u live in like Montana...i wouldn't have 20w-50 in the motor during winter.... in younger engines or performance engines the thinner the better due to the less friction it would have... so it all depends lol...

 

o ok just wondering.... thx

 

Thicker isn't better for older engines. Think about it...it is harder for the engine to move a thicker oil upon startup than a thinner oil.
