Hey I need y'all's advice. So in Spring and Summer I burn 1-2qts every 500 or so miles, and I use 15w40 oil. Changed the oil the other week with 15w-40 again and now I'm burning 1-2qts every 230-280 miles. Just added some 10w40 to try and slow down oil consumption. What oil weight should I use for the cold weather? 10w30 dino?
Read the 10,000 opinions in the 80 series section, but it’s hard to say. You probably just need a valve/head job to the tune of $1000.
I went to 5/30 on my last oil change and my motor seems to love it. Take my advice liberally - my 80 is an extreme beater and I put oil in it. I don’t care what kind or weight or whatever. I care that it has oil. I may not be the best person to listen to.
