Mixing-Blending oil types

      Hello Gang,
      
      Hope you are enjoying EAA week, I'm currently using Aeroshell 100W. for my M-14p
      powered Yak-55m.
      
      As you may know when you do cross country in a '55 there is not much room to bring
      oil with you.
      
      I find my self landing at FBOs that don't carry either Aeroshell 100W or 120w in
      summer (80w in winter). Not to mention Phillips 25w-60 is even harder to find
      (hence I use 100W).
      
      So 
      
      Question 1: Can I mix/Blend Aeroshell 100w with 100? I understand that one is ashless
      dispersant and the other one is straigh mineral (no aditives)?
      
      Question 2 : Can I mix 100w with 80w when it starts to get cold?
      
      Question 3: Can I mix Aeroshell 100w with Phillips 25w-60?
      
      Thanks, Javier

Fuel Tank Vents
From:

      Hello Team,
      
      I'd been following the "fuel flow from tanks" topic and in the same token I have
      a question regarding the Fuel Vents.
      
      I have noticed small drops falling from the right wing (when looking at it sitting
      in flying position in my Yak-55m), the first time I noticed was doing vertical
      flight but I dismissed as condensation or rain as the plane sat overnight
      with no covers while there was a storm (and yes as soon as I preflight the plane
      I saw water coming off the ailerons.)
      
      So I decided to look at again and I can see what I think is fuel drops leaving
      the plane from the right wing while doing acro (inverted or vertical) but it is
      only from the right wing and it does not amount to anything on the fuel levels
      (if I fly heavy on the right wing I have more fuel there if I fly heavy on
      the left, it cross feed to the left).
      
      While I do cross country, there is no loss of fuel so leveled flight or seating
      on the tarmac means no fuel loss.
      
      So is this normal? and I never noticed before? I assume that some fuel will get
      caught in the fuel vents and can drip off. but I rather hear your opinions. 
      
      Thanks, Javier
