But, good engine oil are quite expensive.  One day my fuel indicator light comes up, so I drive around the city looking for a pump station to fill my tank to full. On the Seaoil pump station window glass displays number of motor oil with different viscosity on a very low prices. On the first place, I doubt it's not a quality motor oil because it comes at very low price, more than half lower than those with other brands. Seaoil Motor Oil 20W 50 Because of its very low price, for only Php150 per liter, I decide to try Sea Oil motor oil with viscosity 20w 50 (instead of 15w 30 because its not available on that time) on my car. After the process of changing oil, I drive my car around and it works fine. This time with Sea Oil motor oil I can even do change my vehicle oil in every three months time. ...

Mobil Super™ 1000 Diesel 15W-40 Review

Imahe
The Mobil Super 1000 Diesel 15W-40 is designed to provide a high level of protection and performance. It is industry tested so you can trust to get the performance you want from your vehicle. It provides wear protections, engine cleanliness, and high temperature protection. What is 15W-40?  The 15W-40 is a  fluid's resistance to flow, also know as Viscosity. Rated at 0° F (represented by the number preceding the "W" [for Winter]) and at 212° F (represented by the second number in the viscosity designation). So 10W-30 oil has less viscosity when cold and hot than does 15W-40. Motor oil thins as it heats and thickens as it cools. Within reason, thicker oil generally seals better and maintains a better film of lubrication between moving parts. But needed more energy to drive your engine. So, if a motor oil passes the cold temperature or W (winter grade) specification for a SAE 15W and at 210° F (100° C) flows through the viscometer like a SAE 40 motor oil, then the label wil...
