M1 Euro 0w40 works in everything I ownWe ask this question from time to time about everything... Like:
If you could only have one car, what would it be?
If you could only have one pair of shoes, what would they be?
If you could only have one meal, what would it be?
Etc...
Well, if you could only have one engine oil, what would it be?
In that case, everyone will have to use Mystik 15w40.Not necessarily. It might be dictated by a SHTF scenario, that requires economy of thought, space, or some other valuable commodity.
I can't pick just one. Too many applications with vastly different requirements.
This question is fairy-tale silly.
Cost doesn't matter in this discussion, only maximum versatility.If price were no issue, I would choose one of the 5w30's that are rated for the modern turbo diesels. Those low SAPS oils are very robust and will run in anything, usually rated to run 10k to 20k miles.
But if you are talking about a situation where you get you biggest bang for your buck.......
In that case, it would be HPL.Cost doesn't matter in this discussion, only maximum versatility.
What? Not LM from FCP? Weak .HPL 5W40 Euro.
