Hey guys im new to the forum as a member but long time guest of the site. I reside in the state of Massachusetts
I went to the Local Wally world to capitalize on the 5$ off valvoline sale and such. ended up getting two Jugs of VWB, a jug of Mobil Super 5,000 and a jug of PYB for about 43 bucks after rollbacks. I have had great luck with those oils in previous vehicles. I change my own oil religiously so Syn is a waste to me call me old school.
With that being said I recently have swapped the engine(77,000 km 38,000 Mile Canadian sourced engine 1.6l 4afe) into my 1991 Toyota celica ST and am currently running a fill of castrol gtx hm 10w30 semi syn (got a good deal at the auto store). The engine i have in now was sold without an oil pan so my question is now that its in and running( like a top)what do you think a good first OCI on it would be due to the pan being off for so long and is there any benefit of using 10w30 in summer per the manual vs a 5w30 for the summer months?
Thanks
