Can I mix 15w40.......with 10w30?
Hi
I have Rotella 15w40 weight oil in my LT-1 now and I just found a place that sells 10w30 which would be a better choice.Can I mix the two or do I have to drain it and refill with the 10w30?
I just put in the 15w40 about a week ago.

you can mix the two without a problem, for Wisconsin, the 15w 40 would be a better oil in the summer and 10w 30 would be a better oil for the winter, if you drive the car in the winter!

Hey, I just picked up 2 gallons of Rotella 15w/40 at Home Depot yesterday!
I bought it because it was there - I saw it - and don't see it at many places. I just did a Mobil 1 oil change a few weeks ago so I won't need it for a while, but at least I have it now.
