Hi Guys,
I have some [color=rgb(34, 34, 34)]Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40 Fully Synthetic Engine Oil left over from my car service, that I am hoping i can use for my bike. I have been told the Haynes manual states my FZS 600 (2003) needs 10W-40 oil. [/color]
[color=rgb(34, 34, 34)][/size][/color]
[/size]Being "5W" means the oil is designed to work at lower temperatures than the recommended "10W", does anyone know if this will affect the viscosity at higher temperatures? And therefore damage/wear my engine?
Thanks![size=12px]
