I need to use up some B3G3 Free M1 Coupons.
The oil is for '95 GMC K1500 w/350TBI and 170k+ miles. No leaks, with small but normal consumption. It is not driven much and used in South Texas, so there is no "cold weather" here. It will see city use and beach use with some 4x4 action in the sand.
What are the practical differences between M1 0-40, 5-40, and 10-40?
Are the add packs different? Does one weight shear more or less than others? Do they have different TBN's?
I have heard that M1 is on the "thin side" of the weights when comparing brands. Is this true with the x-40 weights?
I am looking for maximum protection, opposed to maximum efficiency.
Thanks guys....
