Subject:5W30 Oil --- is it OK???
From:Doug Alcock
Date:Thu, 24 Jun 1999 12:23:35 -0400

Just put 5W30 in my 84 vanagon  ---- saw a post this morning that talked
about burning out bearings (oil to thin???) but was too quick on the
delete key. Is this oil OK??? --- I'm leaving on a long trip Saturday and
am wondering if I should change to something else before I go. (I swear I
noticed a
performance improvement too --- but I sure don't want to risk damaging the
engine))

Thanks,
Doug
