Owners manual calls for sae 30 in summer. It should be fine to use 10w-30 instead correct? Sae 30 is quite expensive compared to the latter.
Thanks

It's probably fine, but when they call for 30 wt., I give them 30 wt. You can buy a 2 gallon at Walmart for pretty reasonable, and that's enough to last a long time. It can also be used for general lubrication around the shop, and makes an ok bar oil.(quoted from post at 02:41:00 06/04/19) Owners manual calls for sae 30 in summer.

(quoted from post at 11:58:16 06/05/19) Anything that has flat tappets needs it and did you know that the new springs used on valves of old engines are stiffer than originals. Taking zinc out is because new engines have almost every thing running on rollers. New engines roller cam and roller rockers and in some there is no rocker the cam sets on top of valves.
(quoted from post at 17:56:53 06/05/19) New oils have cut way back on zddp. Tell your die hard collectors of old cars,
trucks,and tractors that they don't need zddp and they will laugh in your face.
(quoted from post at 22:54:20 06/05/19) Your antique tractors, trucks, and cars are all low rpm and low compression engines.
The only reason why you are seeing cut in use of zinc is do to the EPA.
