There isn't a particular engine oil that is capable for use in all automobiles. You should use the one that is specified for your type of vehicle. ♥

If you can't determine the type of oil you should use, here are some recommendations:

  • SAE 40 for hot climates (i.e. Florida)
  • SAE 10W-30 for medium climates (i.e. Iowa)
  • SAE 5W-30 for cold climates (i.e. Montana)
  • SAE 0W-20 or thinner for extremely cold climates (i.e. Alaska)
  • SAE 30 for small engines

Can you use gear oil in engine?

No, you should not use gear oil in an engine. Gear oil is specifically designed for transmissions, differentials, and gear systems, whereas engine oil is formulated to lubricate and protect the internal components of an engine. Using gear oil in an engine can cause improper lubrication, overheating, and potential engine damage. Always use the recommended engine oil specified by the manufacturer for optimal performance.
