Remember this, The HEAVIER the oil the Slower it circulates when Cold! Second, The HEAVIER the Oil the LESS HP you will make! 40 Wt will make more power than 50 wt. 15 wt will get to everything SLOWER than 10 Wt specially on a colder day!
10w / 40 is the best compromise! For acing only 20 or 30 Wt!
