I live further north. I switched my GT6 over to Valvoline full synthetic 10W30
last year. It does not seem to be leaking; it didn't before. It does not seem
to be burning more oil, if any; it didn't before. It does make more noise.
The louder valve clatter is bothersome, and worrisome. I may switch it over to
10W40 if they make it (IIRC, I couldn't find it before, which made me think
they didn't make it), or all the way to 20W50. Of course, that may increase
the oil burning.
