Quote from article:

"This is precisely why multi-viscosity oils were developed. These products have different viscosities at different temperatures; as an example, a 10W30 oil has the viscosity of a 10 weight at 0 degrees Fahrenheit and that of a 30 weight at 212 F"

Ummm, WRONG!!! (I guess all that runny, hot oil just seemed thinner to me!)

I do agree with most of the rest of the article...

Here's one for you: I wonder how many of these blown dist. gears are in engines running 50 weight as apposed to 30 weight?
