Mercon LV: https://www.fcsdchemicalsandlubricants.c...MERCON%20LV.pdf
Can someone with more knowledge than me compare the Gulf to the Mercon. The most notable I can see is that the Gulf has a VI of 130 and the Mercon VI is spec'd at 155. Is that a huge difference or is it negligible? What about the Gulf viscosity @ 40c being 34.4 and the Mercon being 29.6. Is that a huge difference? Or is the Gulf not even close to meeting Mercon spec.? The Amsoil fluid I'm thinking about getting matches Mercon spec way closer than the Gulf does but I'm not sure if the Gulf is even that far off spec.
