Subject: Re: Multi-Viscosity Oil
Multi-Viscosity oils flow better at low temperatures, so you get better
protection at start up. They also retain there thickness better at
operating temperatures, so you don't lose as much oil through the
pistons.
I think it was Mobil's synthetic oils that caused a lot of engine
damage, to the point that a lot of engines were replaced by the oil
company. Multi-Viscosity oil has been around a lot longer than that, and
if it was going to cause problems, it would already have, and they would
no longer be available for airplanes.
My $.02 worth.
