    hi guys...

    sched ko na mag-oil change within the week or so ng '98 sentra ga14de ko..

    for some reason, merong several bottles of 10W-40 4T shell motorcycle oil sa pinsan ko which i plan to use...

    actually, i'll just use the mc oil after the engine oil has completely drained. will put the 4T oil and let the engine run for say, 10 mins tapos drain uli. then, yung Shell Helix Plus (blue) na ang ilalagay ko.

    do you think this is okay/safe? using the 10w-40 (4T) motorcycle oil for the car engine?

    or pwede ko ring gamitin ito sa mismong pang change oil ko?

    thanks! thanks!

    not sure kung pwede yan gamitin as your main oil.. but for use as flushing oil pwede naman.. possible kasi na iba yung chemical additives na nakalagay dyan since intended sya sa 4T engine

    gagamitin mo ba as flushing oil, kasi ang pagkakaalam ko kailangan patakbuhin mo ang car for a certain mins bago mo i drain ito para naka circulate ng maganda ang oil at malinis ang engine ng maganda.to be sure bakit hindi ka na lang bumili ng motor oil sa mga gas station yung pinakamura meron pa naman yatang less that P100/L. yun ang gamitin mong pang flushing para sigurado, baka magluko ang makina mo masmalaki ang gastos mo.

    and isipin mo kahit na mag drain ka ng oil meron parin maiiwan na maliit na amount ng oil sa loob ng makina, at iba ang properties nito compared sa pang tsikot.
