I recommend a 0W-30 or 0W-40 (synthetic if possible) The most important thing to remember is the Pour Point, which is listed on the back of the Mobil 1 bottles, I think that 0W-40 will pour at -50F (that really means it will pour out of a cup at -50F) At my old employer 10 years ago a lab supervisor called me over to this test chamber and said "ever seen -40 petroleum dexron 2 transfluid. I said nope..it was literally gel, not even a fluid at that temp. that is why I now believe in synthetics especially at super low temps.
