    Bakit pag sa mineral oil puro 20w50 ang viscocity?

    Wala ba 10w40 or 10w30 pero mineral oil pa rin....

    Kasi pag ganyan viscocity na eh sa synthetic lang meron....

    monograde ang oil niya. bale, straight 40 weight oil. So malamig man o mainit, 40 weight oil pa din. This type of oil is usually used for diesel engines.

    In greneral, multi-grade oils are preffered over mono grade oils. Almost all modern vehicles recommend use of multi-grade oils.

    ndi naman lahat 20w-40 ...

    meron sa 76 brand 15w-40, 10w-40, 10w-30 all multi grades and affordable naman yung price mga around 175 per us quart/ almost a liter ... cheaper than your basic synthetic .... which i sell of course

    yung castrol meron din 10-40 pero i think its semi synthetic na rin 250 a bottle ... magnatec i think the name

    Mga bossing,

    If a car is already more than 10 years old, would it still be advisable to use say 10w40, or 15w40? This oil is recommended per my owner's manual, and per Hayes workshop manual. Sabi naman ng mekaniko dito 20w50 daw para mas malapot. Scheduled for oil change and tune up na naman kasi ako this coming december. As always your advises are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
