15W/50, I think it is? Better flow at low temp,
that's a good thing. FYI, the reason why I would
quibble with Mobil 1 as "far and away the best" is
that, with the vicosity ranges they offer, they use
more additives in their "recipe" than valvoline, which
is formulated with no viscosity range enhancers. R&T
did a report years back (Ed, remember the dialogue we
had with Dennis Siminaitis?) on it, and by that
virtue, valvoline was found to leave fewer deposits.
Or maybe it was castrol, that's why i use both ;-).
