GC mix

[DR]

I have an odd number of GC quarts left and it doesn't look like I can get any more, stupid autozone. anyway, I was wondering which oil would mix best with GC if it even matter.

My ultimate mix would be: GC with Syntec 5-50 (I just did this over the weekend)

He finally uses the GC, awesome!

How much did you put in? 50/50?

Will you finally do a UOA??

Just for fun or trying to accomplish something specific? I thought about you last week, when our Wal-Mart had a bunch of 5W-50 for $2 a qt.

Does GC and Syntec 5W50 have a similar smell?

No, just 1L (out of 8L capacity) to top up. I figure it's still winter and what better time to try it. Hey, maybe next interval will be a full GC one...

Not the last time I checked, but I'd have to do another smell test to make sure

I want to say that the entire Syntec line smells like Tide detergent except for GC which smells more sweet than detergently

.

Looks like Prestone coolant going in though....scary....

I recently mixed 50/50 GC and Syntec 10W40. Just so everyone knows at 13°F it starts just fine no cavitation or starvation!!
