In Reply To	why do SO many people overthink this? 10W30 or 40, pick one posted by LJZTT on March 31, 2010 at 08:46 AM
Message	:Unless you live in the tundra the oil weight is not going to make :any difference. if you have a tt, i wouldn't run a 10w30...at least a 40-weight. just an opinion, for 25 bucks, you can send your oil to blackstone to get an analysis.
