Anyone running 15w40?
Anyone? Im strongly thinking next oil change to do so. I hear more n more lnf cobalts with high hp do. I might even stick with amsoil 15w40, but just curious if any of yall have yet.

5w is for below 32 deg starts...no reason for 40 wt unless your absolutely pounding on your eng and your running the risk of really high temperatures. Those cobalt guys are also probably running a lot of hard core mods .. and street racing... and still relying on old school text books...

You run 15w40 youll cause more engine where on cold start the oil wont flow up fast enought or or flow downwerd you culd go 5w50 or 0w50. Royal purple makes an 0w50 if I remember right. Oils ghees days or multy viscosity. This when their cold as they heat up they get thicker. Too think is as bad also seen pple put too much lucas oil stabilizer in and blow a gasket. Valve cover blown. Oil flowing threw the valve cover vent into the intake thats a nice mess to clean
