Aside from cold weather ops and having to warm up a littlt longer is there any
problem with using aeroshell 120W in the M14?

I live in central CA, where its gets +100F i the Summer and down to
only ~30F in Winter. The A/P at my local FBO has a lot of time with
American round engines, and has found the mutli-weights (I think it'2
25-60) have worked best for him. That's what I use, happily now for
over 200 hrs.
Of course the big round engines guys have a different story on this topic:
http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/engines/radial-oil-shell-phillips-15120.html
And why 'Precision Engine' says single weight is better:
http://www.precisionengines.com/pdf/oilBulletin.pdf
And this from Aircraft Spruce on the benefits of multi-grade oil:
"X/C 25W-60 is the first and only multiviscosity aviation oil
designed and approved for radial engines originally designed to run
on 120 grade. Pilots and mechanics will notice immediate benefits
with X/C 25W-60 over single grade oils. Benefits such as improved oil
flow at startup, quicker warm-up time, cooler operating temperatures
and a cleaner operating engine. X/C 25W-60 also has proven corrosion
protection in extreme conditions. X/C 25W-60 can be used year-round,
during break-in and on to TBO."

I also throw this in from MICROLON since I have treated all my car
and a/c engines with it. It really does work:

Thanks,
The reason I ask is I use 120W in my R1820 and have been using 100W in the M14,
I just hate keeping two different Barrels in the shop.
