> Factory rec for the tr3 was 30w, before multi-grade oils. Practical Hints (the factory owner's manual for TR3A) lists a variety of weights, from 10W to 20W40, depending on expected air temperature. Earlier editions also listed 5W, but only for use in temperatures below -10F. Evidently they realized they were selling many cars to the poles, because that line was dropped later on <g> The TR3 version listed 40 weight, rather than 20W40, for temps over 70F. -- Randall |
