Is it not amazing that so many can say so much and still leave folks scratching their head?
Below is "exactly"what Amsoil sums it up. Notice thier use of "simple english" and lack of attempt to imperess with a bunch of double talk.
If a motor oil passes the cold temperature or W (winter grade) specification for a SAE 15W and at 210� F (100� C) flows through the viscometer like a SAE 40 motor oil, then the label will read 15W-40. Getting the picture? Consequently, if the motor oil performs like a SAE 5 motor oil on the reduced temperature scale and flows like a SAE 20 at 210� F (100� C), then this motor oil's label will read 5W-20. And so forth and so on!
I can't tell you how many times I have heard someone, usually an auto mechanic, say that they wouldn't use a 5W-30 motor oil because it is, "Too thin." Then they may use a 10W-30 or SAE 30 motor oil. At engine operating temperatures these oils are the same. The only time the 5W-30 oil is "thin" is at cold start up conditions where you need it to be "thin."
