Converted Thinnie

I wouldn't use 0W-16 in anything unless it was specifically spec'd for that engine. That being said, there is probably no real harm in using it in many applications that 0W-20 is recommended, especially hybrids or during winter driving.....
 
We need more posts of +200,000 miles on engines using xw20 motor oil. Ford has been calling for it for over 20 years. Are they out there or not?
Probably, but 99.5% of them don't give a rat's behind. We keep forgetting we are a odd lot here. *&^^%&*((&^^%%^&&**#@#$$%%%^###@@@!!!!!

Is OCD worse than being CRAZY!
 
Haha I do the same thing:D It goes along with the freezer tests, the color tests, the oven tests, the frying pan tests, etc. When I'm changing the oil, I always admire the feeling of rubbing my fingers together after lubing the oil filter gasket, or just when I randomly pull the dipstick to check the oil:D

I'll never forget the night my gf opened our freezer to find a jug of M1 15W50 staring her in the face!!:ROFLMAO:
Then your fingers know that SS oil is far slicker than FS..........
