Re: IML: enging oil

["Rob P" <fristpenny@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My "knickers" are not in a twist.  Just wondering what Chris H. has against 
10W30.  He is a reasonable man, knows his stuff and does his research, so I 
was wondering about his reasoning on this issue.  I have actually had others 
tell me that 10W40 was worse than 10W30 because whatever is necessary to 
make it cover the larger range makes it more likely to break down over 
time/hard use.  I like 10W30, but I'm willing to be educated otherwise.

Rob, who prefers boxers. :)
