Thanks Mike for your reply, but I am a little confused. I thought that 10W30 would be a high mileage formula and that the 5W was for newer cars? I may be wrong... also I would be apprehensive about running 5W in such a warm climate. I don’t mean to second guess, I just would go a with a higher viscosity. Oh well, guess that’s why I am asking. I know that I will need to replace my seals, they are original. My number 5 cylinder has a wet plug, the rest look great. I will try to do it over the winter but I just wanted to drive the car over the summer, so I put that off.
