I'm just never putting 0w-20 water in my engine

the same engine was listed for 5w-30 just 10 years ago with identical tolerances.
0w-20 or thinner is a scam to make your engine wear out faster.

oh wow, daring today?
what new controversial take will you be posting to your blog next?

>>28706904 (OP)
Oil alone is NOT enough, that's the real scam

This display is dumb because 99% of engines have 0 gears in them, the ones that do (i4s and v6s with balance carts, diesels) are pressure fed rather than splash or tooth to tooth transfer.

zipper merges should be done at the end where the lane starts merging

>>28706924
I remember those spinny things as a kid.
Lucas Oil is 100% advertisements and 99% garbage.

>>28706947
sure and theoretically zipper merges work perfectly fine at any road posted speed limit too.
in reality people's behavior is not mechanistic and your opinions on the matter are irrelevant

But does their engine stop leak work? The bottle says it does!

>i'll put 5w-30 pisswater instead

>>28707052
hey you wanted a controversial opinion i thought that's pretty relevant

>>28706906
It is a pretty goofy ass take because 0W-20 can take alot of abuse

>>28707408
This people have this misconception that 30 weight is some based racing oil that's gonna hold up at super high temps or something, meanwhile they've got a slow ass, low horsepower economy engine that would be fine on 0W-20

>>28707364
Imagine if the bottle said that it won't work for shit.

Nigga you illiterate

You got that toyota 2gr v6?

>0w-20


Why are you using thick ass oil unc? My car uses ow-8

My motorcycle has pretty tight tolerances and it uses 10w 50 so I don't think tolerances care that much

>check oil at 5k miles with pic rel
>still looks brand new
Works on my machine

>>28709976
That just means it wasn't even circulating.

>>28709984
>lower viscosity oil has a harder time circulating
:(

>>28709988
*whooosh*
You heard that?

>>28706904 (OP)
Get with the times boomer, Toyota is using 0W-16 now. Some new BMWs even use 0W-12

>>28710018
Goyota uses 0w-8 on their new Corollas

>>28709992
There has to be a joke for it to go over my head

>>28706904 (OP)
Why is 0w30 not really a thing? Next step up for ILSAC: GF-6A is 5w30. I have Canadian winters here but I also want a bit more protection for the engine.

>>28706924
I was thinking of putting this in my pressure washer. Does anyone know how this handles in splash lubed engines?

Don't talk shit about my senpai Toyota-san, you baka gaijin
