well i was changing the oil in my truck tonight, amsoil of course an put it 2 galons of 15w40 and 1 gallon of 20w50 (the last was for my v-twin super bike) i put it in by mistake so now i have the new 16w43, i am such a dumb azz. what are your guys thoughts on this. the oil not me being a dummy. i am just going to run it till it nneds changed again.

 

lol [sm=icon_stickpoke.gif] sorry, it brings back memories of when I was topping off my M3 and mistakenly dumped in brake fluid that was in an oil container (from bleeding brakes)... I was so pissed... [sm=headbang.gif] it was RIGHT before leaving out of town and that was THE ride we were taking. fortunately for me I had another filter sitting on the shelf and walmart was not too far... My wife (bless her heart, didnt laugh once (in front of me anyways)) went to walmart for the oil while I drianed the old stuff out.... 30 minutes later we were on our way.

anyways, back to your problem... I think you should be fine, amsoil is too expensive to dump out for a mixup like this. with the mix being thicker, you may suffer some loss in mpg though...

 

I was pissed when i done it and started to get worried about it and then the more i thougt about it the less worried i was. I still got buy some more 20w50 though.
