    I ask this because does it matter what oil you really put in your engine. The syn that I have been using since 2k has been group3 so is it ok to go back and forth between dino and g3? Will this create bad effects to the engine? I ask this because I want to know if my engine will continue to see...

    Is it ok to run M1 0W-20 in a 90 2.0L sunbird.

    I was looking at the specs on the M1 site and it sayed that the oil poured at -50c. Which is realy good, now I'm obviously not going to run this oil in the summer months because I would think it's to thin for an engine with some use. So how about it. But winter isn't for another 6 months

    Can I use 1 quart of kerosene to clean the fuel system and CC?

    Just wondering if that will do the job. It's so much cheaper than buying a bottle of Fuel Injector cleaner that is just a relabled kerosene bottle.
