Guys,

Anyone using a premix in their fuel? I came across the Idemitsu Rotary Premix and am wondering if its any good. Premix's are said to help combustion (less carbon deposits) and lubricate the Apex Seals.

Motul also carries 3 versions of the Semi-Syn (Ester) based engine oil. Heard that Ester helps to lubricate the seals. I'm using 20W50 Mineral Motul now on the 8.

Any comments?

Darul, some of the machanic here says that the 20W infront means when the engine oil start working. therefore according to them, it is bad to have too high infront, means when u start your engine, its not protected as much. have to get pro to clearify. i am not sure bout it. but after changing to 10W30 i feel that when u start your car, it go very high RPM more than when i use 5W30, 2.2K RPM

...well...ur car technically shud start at a higher rpm considering previously u use 5W....instead of 10W........

....msia got no Winter ...so...supposedly we arent suppose to choose that low (e.g 5W)..........
however..in Msia...the climate is fairly hot and our engine also very hot....if u use viscosity of 30, then the oil will be too thin for the engine to pickup. So...its advisable to get a thicker or "heavier" oil....

well...thats my 88 cents la........

Anyhoo......Happy Eid ul-Fitr everyone!!!!!!!!

..and drive safely.........

Boy,

Go to this link.
http://www.motul.com.my/product_line...4stroke23.html

Proof of a 20W50 Mineral for you Moreover, I think viscosity is thinner when the numbers are lower.
