Hello from frigid Minnesota.

I am just a few days away from starting the rinse cycle on the Auto-RX and it is darn cold here and will be for the next couple of months. It's 10 below zero outside right now.

Can anyone recommend a suitible rinse oil that will work well with the Auto RX in a vehicle that gets parked outside in sub-zero temps?

The vehicle is a 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan with 310,000 miles on the original engine and tranny. Yea, I think that's a world record!

Any ideas?
 
I would suggest any conventional oil in the viscosity recommended for your vehicle. Given the extreme temps where you live, if you felt better with a synthetic I'd also consider Pennzoil Platinum. If you go with the PP, I would recommend extending the rinse phase by 500-700 miles. Bottom line is conventional oil is the best choice for the rinse phase.
