Subject:      Synthetic Oil?
In-Reply-To:  <b7.3119370.265328af@aol.com>

I got my shots and a passport today, so I went into K-Mart and as I was checking out the synthetic oils, I saw some marked as 0W-30W

Isn't 0W sort of a screwy description for a product. What are the characteristics of 0W oil?

The bottle said the motor would start in -40F temps, but that sounds cruel to begin with.

Just can't help but wonder what the buying public thinks of 0W oil. ;-)

Regards from Utah,

John
