I'm sure see see b4 engine oil with viscosity of 0w-20 or 0w-30, that is better for cool country because 0w is like water based ,so if the weather is cold like snow, 0w is better for the start up engine, as when u ignition the engine, 0w will lube the engine faster as the 0w based is thinner to run the whole engine. 30 is better for cold country because is thinner when it heat up and the heat remain hot in the engine. if 30 applies in our country, it will boiled up and dry away cause is to hot.....so its nothing to do with the grade of the oil..fuuly or semi ...see</p></blockquote><p></p>
