Oil weight and oil pressure

[OilUzer]

They put dummy oil pressure gauges with no psi numbers on them at least my Tundra is like that.
My other cars have no oil pressure gauge. Tundra has a L and H and it typically sits in the middle.

I didn't notice any differences from factory 0W-20 to when I switched to Valvoline EP 5W-30 or M1 EP 10W-30. I just ignore it now. If a light comes on, I'll see it. I haven't tried a 40 grade in it yet. Have some Euro 40 but am afraid of using it in a Japanese engine!

Why would you be afraid of running a Euro 40 in a Japanese engine?

Because of the language difference.

Even though the engine is Japaneese, Tundra is assembled in Texas so it speaks English as @kschachn has mentioned. So the oil will better understand the needs of the engine. Communication is the key between married couples!

Imagine European oil with fancy approvals which are formulated to deal with fussy or for the lack of a better word high maintenance engines ...

My Tundra requires a very simple ILSAC GF-5 and nothing more. Basically we have a very low maintencae couple working together ... You know, birds of a same feather flock together. No?

A shorter version:
It was a joke. I may use 40 when towing.
