You need to study the owners manual engine oil viscosity chart from the understanding and view that it’s NOT a step by step of absolutes , I have always understood it to be what I term a :

Hey Matt, thanks for the tutorial. My specific question regards reading those two top rows. Is that read as: at 100F either 20W-50 or 10W-50 are appropriate?
I've never understood fully the two upper rows on the viscosity vs temp graph in the FSM. Is it just to give an option for the warmest temps/seasons (20W/50 or 10W-50)?
This is a pretty common problem, but if one hasn't heard of it or stumbled upon it here, or (in my case) a good local tech, it can appear to be scary. Rust was not my problem; just a loose adjustment.
