oil question
Changing the oil today on a DE with over 200,000 if that makes a difference..
I have been running German Castrol full synthetic 0w-30 in it for awhile now(last 4 or 5 oil changes).Prior to that I always ran Mobil1 5w-30.
I picked up some Castrol full synthetic 5w-40 by mistake and was wondering if I could just use it anyway for this oil change since it is close to the same weight.
I dont have the receipt anymore,so I cant return it.I just wanted to use it since I paid for it already.
I plan to go back to the German 0w-30 again next change.What do you guys think?
Does it make a difference if you change oils on occasion like that?
What are the effects of this,if any?
