whats15w/40 oil like in ya corsa? iv always used 10w/40,and my mate uses 5w as its thinner lol

[kie-1200sxi-shed]

yer im glad i did it myself ive learnt quite alot in the short time while fitting it although next time i would like another pair of helpfull hands to help me lol
yer in real life it looks 1000x better before the engine looooked horrible and rusty but now ive got quite a decent one underthe hood thanks to a pot of black engine paint and a wire brush lol looks alot newer so asoon as gearbox fixed and hose put on should be able to find out if it runs (hope it bloody does ! )

Well iv not passed my test yet, Well its next tuesday

yer i use to go over there a while ago , well b&q part but dnt bother anymore usualy get tits (scousers) cumin over now.

whats15w/40 oil like in ya corsa? iv always used 10w/40,and my mate uses 5w as its thinner lol

well i usualy use 10w40 but as im runnin the engine for first time with it not bin running in ages ive gone for 15w40 as thats the recommended oil for a 1.2. but after that if alls good ill go bk to the usual.
