    Default ::.. Oil oil oil oil... and not a drop to drink

    So many choices, so little time... and only what's on the list!

    What should I get for this Saturday's change? Time to dip into synthetic...

    BTW the temps here are dropping to just above the single digits (in Celcius).

    Perhaps a lower range is in order? Then again, I should be due for a change before the snow hits...

    I voted castrol syntec 5w50, because 5w40 wasn't on the list.

    I got my 5 pack of eBay Mahle oil filters yesterday.
    I am going to use a 5 Qt. jug of M1 red cap 15-50 and 1 Qt. M1 yellow cap 10-30 in my LOF this weekend.
    So who's good at math ?
    What weight will the oil be with this mix ?
