Quoting turbohf:
I run the vr1 20w50... she cranks a little slow in the winter and the lifters arnt happy (new lifters in mail).
how cold are your winters? i try to run vr1 in the warm times, but once temperature starts hitting 40's, I switch to Rotella T6. It just takes too long to warm up the motor w the 20w50, dont have the patience for that.
seem to get a 10F day or two out the year. but the galant is parked outside and frozen over at that point. but im pretty sure i have lit her off on a 19F day. plenty of 25-30F days. it does take a while to warm up, and like i said, lifters seem pissed off forsure.
i usually have 2-3 cars. and one will always be in garage, so it will be lest cold and not frosted over. plus im usually late, so that has won in the past.
