people on here think that just because their vehicle made it to a gizillion miles trouble free on just motor oil that everybody else's will too. That is so LOL...I heard someone tell me a story years ago it all depends on what day your vehicle was built. People coming into work at the assembly plant on Monday after a long weekend of drinking weren't in the mood to build it right, but by Wednesday they were putting them together better, but by Friday they were slacking off AGAIN because they couldn't wait to get out of the factory and back to a weekend of drinking...LOL...I guess as long as the nano doesn't clog the filter it won't hurt anything...right...LOL

That’s funny. LOL
Thanks....
And you need to read AEHaas' Thin vs Thick Discussion.
No, it is not? No what is not? WTH are you talking about Bud?
Help???

Read the post he’s quoting for Christ’s sake. It’s not hard to follow this short of a thread…

Got any links to back that up?
It poured out [hot] like transmission fluid or cold? Most fluids will appear thin when hot. It’s very hard to distinguish between 10 and 20 cSt at ~100C by visual inspection only.

For Christ Sake? Really?...I need to be cursed at bud. I apolligized for my mistake...I hope you don't your youngin's with that potty mouth...
And I don't care if you throw me off this biased forum, Being a A-hole is not my thing so I don't take to anybody coming down on me for an honest mistake....
That thing is so full of errors it's almost an embarrassment. He's posted some real whoppers on this board over the years.
Physics matters whether people believe in it or not. Like I said earlier you need to learn up on what the winter rating means and does not mean.
There are so many shadow characters on here sometimes that it's hard to discern just who is posting.
Repeats, reruns and resurrections, often with an attitude like this time.

To be clear, you apologized AFTER my post. I posted my frustration, but also pointed out the obvious to you, so you’d stop posting incredulously.
FCS != FFS and is only a meant as a display of frustration, not a curse. The answer to your confusion was literally one quote-depth deep.
It's hard keeping up with all of them! Then we have the same question asked ten different ways, in hope to get the answer the OP was looking for.

There is a very good reason why the motor oil University articles that are on the main page of this site were re-written with the input of formulators, tribologists and engineers and why the good doctor's latest "takes" on the subject didn't make their way on there as amendments.

Motor Oil 101 - Chapter One - Operating Temperatures and Viscosity - Bob is the Oil Guy
Chapter One Understanding what viscosity grades mean can be confusing. The average driver just tries to follow what is in the owner’s manual – this is a good practice. Some owner’s manuals allow for different grades based on the predicted operating temperature. For example, they may specify a...

And the motor oil University backs up what I said earlier. At startup, a 0W oil will be thinner than a 5W oil.

A 0w-40 won't be thinner than a 5w-30
If you want to have the discussion on how this works, I'm more than willing, but before I bother explaining, please let me know if you are honestly interested.
Just a quick addendum, viscosity curves have been plotted here over the years. Not sure if you are familiar with the relationship reflected by VI, but a 5w-20 with a higher VI than a 0w-20 can be thinner at start-up until you get quite a ways below zero.
