OIL Viscosity
By John - 04/18/2001 9:21:31 PM; IP 24.222.71.214
Also, in realtion to my question aboutn oil drainback, with 0.0025 clearances, everyone says I should be using 20W50 with a Melling HV pump. This THICK oil takes a long time to drain back until it gets hot. Anybody have an opinion on the best viscosity to use with these clearances?
