Normally 10W-30 is recommended, but in colder climates 5W-20 is sufficient.
The recommended oil for a 2004 Honda Rebel 250 is 10w40 for summer conditions. For colder climates or special use a different weight will be needed.
castrol TXT Castrol TXT is a 5w30 oil which is better suited for colder climates. Castrol Magnatec 10w40 is better for Hot Tropical climates...
Depends a bit on where you live, and whether you use the Suburban for towing. For general use, in mild climates, 5W30 is recommended. For colder climates or for a vehicle that tows a lot (or has a snow plow attached!), you should consult the owners guide for the recommended weight.
5W-30 in colder climates, 10W-30 in warmer climates.
Use the oil of your choice. 5w30 for colder climates, and 10w30 for warmer weather.
Any featherbed will work well in colder climates.
When there are differences in numbers in motor oil, there is a difference in viscosity. A lower number has lower viscosity and is good for warmer climates. A higher number is good for colder climates.
10W-30 weight oil is recommended for your 2000 Kia. If the vehicle is operated in extreme climates you can use a heavier motor oil.
Viscosity is the measurement of how thick the oil is. Colder climates require a thinner oil, like a 5w oil. W means weight. Hotter climates require thicker oil so it will not "break down", or become too thin.
Any good quality 10w40 or 15w50 (for colder climates)
5W-30 in warmer climates, 10W-30 in colder
