speaking of which I need to shange oils on GP

[Cez★]

interesting. there be one specific weight or which do i getz?

[theholycow]

Unless you've got a race car or something known for engine failure (like a Toyota with their sludge issues), any oil is fine...get what's cheap. They all have to meet standards that are newer than lowgmc.

5W30 is probably what lowgmc takes. It's pretty much specified for every vehicle for the past 15 years.

10w30 it is.

[Ewok]

not much of a difference but it makes me sleep better at night

[theholycow]

If I was concerned about a worn-out high mileage engine I'd probably go for 5W40, not 10W30. Gotta have that quick oil circulation from the 5 when it's cold, and prolly better to have the thicker protection once it's warmed up.

[Cez★]

well mines got 220k or so on teh clawk so fts.

[theholycow]

I'm still using 5W30 with 200,000 miles, for whatever that's worth.

[Cez★]

no price change?

[theholycow]

Should be about the same price.

[Ewok]

see back in teh day they didnt have all the viscositys they have now there was like

5w30
10w30
10w40
20w50
then the straight weights
30w
40w
50w

I just remembered something.

I passed someone in yesterday. Dude was doing 35 in a 50 zone and I wanted to get the fuck home.

At first I was like "I can do this! "

Then I was like


Then I noticed the dude's window was open so he was getting an earful of BLATBLATBLATBLATBLATBLAT and he was probably like


So I finished the pass and I was all like

[theholycow]

Oh, I forgot this:
