Basically, monograde has higher operating temperature even though both have 40 grade oil, because monograde oil is a little more thicker than multigrade oil.
    Multigrade oils are designed for temperate countries (where WINTER or extreme low temperatures -- freezing or below exist.) The numbers before the "W": 5 in 5W-30, 10 in 10W-40, 15 in 15W-40, etc. refer to the lowest temperatures these oils can operate: i.e: 5deg C, 10deg C or 15deg C, respectively. Water freezes at 0deg C.

    Agreeably, more technology is needed to enable these oils to work in multiple temperature zones -- that is why they are more expensive. However, until Baguio gets any colder, you are just making rich petroleum companies richer by using multi-grade oil locally.

    Yup just use monograde. Not much of a difference. Casa also uses monograde.

    many pinoy tsikoteers also testified that using monograde is much better than using multi-grade - less engine noise and increase engine temperature stability; but not in fuel efficiency since mono is a little thicker than multi.

    i've been thinking of switching na lang to mono oil, but para kasing pang-jeepney lang. hehe.

    sana meron nang fully synthetic monograde oil. para affordable FS at a reasonable price: less oil molecular breakdown resulting to less engine carbon deposits..

    2dmax - I still have yet to schedule my underbody coat by next week but I dunno if matutuloy kasi ARB is coming to our town for the holy week, install kami ng Old Man EMU on my Max .

    Guys, been meaning to post a lot but I seem to be having trouble with our Tsikot site. I can't even open ang page 101 dito sa dmax thread natin . I know that my bandwidth is ok (1.6 mbps) that's what we maintain here sa business namin. I also open motorcyclephilippines.com at the same time eh ok naman ang loading, mas mabilis pa nga than here.

    How about you, have you been having problems with tsikot/dmax thread?

    Post sana ako ng more pics of our adventure with my Max.

    hanggat summer pa pa-undercoat mo na para mas maganda ang kapit ng coat if mainit panahon.

    how much OME? 2 front shocks lang ba papalitan or lahat?
