Hello Joe
I have run 50 WT in all of my cars for years and no oil related problems yet.
58 TR3A, 62 TR3B, and 64 TR4 all with A type. I ran 90 wt in the TR4 for a
while until I became enlightened some years back. No problems there either.
The Laycock Manual says to run 30 Wt, but living in Florida and the high temps
I figured 50 WT would be a better choice.
