...or is this just another idiotic statement?
From a Saturn board:
"EXAMPLE 10w-30
10=The pumping equivalent of the oil at 32 degrees F. (0c) in comparision to water (water being of "0" Weight)
30=The pumping equivalent of the oil at 212 degrees F. (100c) in comparison to water (water being "0" weight)
Keeping this in mind a "0" weight oil would pump as readily as water, a "30" weight oil would pump as readily as 30 times the "thickness" (or viscosity) of water."
Is water '0' weight, if one is using SAE viscosity calculations?
