Wanting to know, if its actually safe to use 10w 30 dino oil, n a car thats speced for 5w 30? its a 1995 plymouth neon. I am wondering, becaue of the clearances ect. I wanna try using 10W 30 for spring and summer, and jsut use 5w 30 for fall and winter. I used mobile 1 10w 30 once, recently, and the car didnt dirve to well, and i saw some steam or smoke, coming outta the engine. I changed it back to 5w 30, and all went well again. That was during a hot humid new england summer, where temperatire was around a sweltering 97 degrees F, with humidity, made it feel about 105 degrees.
Mileage on car, is around 80,000 now. Ive read alot of people like to use 10w 30's for summer, because it protects better, ect, but you will loose some mileage.
what's everyones fact or opinions?
