[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 338955, member: 4527"] Always start with the thinner synthetic oil... as long as you are not suffering from evaporation or leakage in the system, you are alright. Why some people say old engine not suitable for thinner oil? that's because once the engine get used to thicker oil, switching to thinner oil will result in leakage in the system, be it wet engine or white smoke. As long as you are not suffering from these, go thin! 0w-30 if possible.. :wink: Good pick up, light engine, light rev, good FC, good heat transfer, same protection... unless u complain engine noisy lor..
