0w-40!! (works!)
So my friend can get literally endless amounts of 0w-40 from his job and I know the FZ is 10W-40 from factory, but I know Rotella T6 (likely what I was going to run) is 5W-40 and everyone says that's fine so.... would 0W-40 be ok??
This is the oil he can get for me:
Thanks guys, I wanted to ask here before doing anything catastrophically stupid. I wasn't sure if the higher temp viscosity was the important part, and would therefore make it ok to run the 0W...unless, while cold, it wasn't thick enough to protect/lube the engine properly.
