Quick oil question

[Tim]

I got my hands on a couple free bottles of 5w20 oil and would like to use them in my Festy.

I know the recommended oil is 10w30, but would this stuff work fine too? I mostly use my car for highway driving and it will be going on a trip down south soon.


Thanks!

Id stick with the 10w30 myself. Save the free stuff for flushing out the oil pan when you do oil changes.

Think if you put a single quart in with your usual oil you'll be fine!
I've been blending off a single quart of 5w-30(winter) or 20w-50(summer) for 200,000 miles FWIW.
So how things going Tim?

I run pennzoil platinum 5w20, no problems here.

no problems with 5W-20. I run it also.
