only if your engine has trouble keeping the oil pressure up. If it hasn't a thicker oil won't do you any good.
Yes you can use 5W20 oil instead of 5W30. One is just thicker then the other. The 5W20 is better in the winter and the 5W30 is better in the summer.
AW40 hydraulic oil is thicker than AW32 hydraulic oil. The numbers in the designations refer to the viscosity of the oil, with a higher number indicating a thicker oil. Specifically, AW32 has a viscosity of approximately 32 centistokes at 40°C, while AW40 has a viscosity of about 40 centistokes at the same temperature. Therefore, AW40 provides better performance in higher temperature applications where thicker oil is needed.
20W50 is the " thicker " oil
The higher the number the thicker the oil.
The w refers to oil weight, or viscosity, the higher the number the thicker the oil. 10W 30 and 5W30 are formulated to change viscosity depending on temperature, with lower number being thinner for winter driving. Generally, 5W30 is better for winter and 10W30 better for summer, or 10 W 40 even better for summer. Check the car manual to be sure for specific type of vehicle.
the temperature outside will thicken the oil in the winter in the summer you should use thicker because the heat will thin en the oil btw I'm 15 and know this
Yes, SAE 30 oil is thicker than SAE 10 oil. The numbers in the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) rating indicate the oil's viscosity, with higher numbers representing thicker oils. Therefore, SAE 30 has a higher viscosity than SAE 10, making it more suitable for higher temperature applications or older engines that require thicker oil for better lubrication.
recommend using thicker oil just dont beat on you car
Yes, you can use a thicker motor oil in the summer, as higher temperatures can lead to thinner oil becoming less effective at lubricating the engine. However, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for oil viscosity to ensure proper engine performance and protection. Using excessively thick oil may hinder cold starts and cause increased engine wear. Always check your owner's manual for the best oil specifications for your vehicle.
Engine oil does not get "thicker" at high temperatures it gets thinner.
10w30 is thicker than 5w20
8 oz. of PAG 46, or PAG 100, or PAG 150 the numbers mean higher the number the thicker the oil. Thicker oil is better in high temp. situations..... p.s. 8 oz. of oil + 2 12 oz. cans of 134a. (if it is completely out)
