I would suggest that you use Mobil 1 5W-40.
Mobil 1 10W-30 is a _fine_ choice. You can't go wrong with it.
The only problem is that HT/HS viscosity of 10W-30 is something like
3.2 mPa-s (cP), which disqualifies Mobil 1 10W-30 from meeting
ACEA A3/B3.
Mobil 1 5W-40 easily meets all standards known to man. So does 0W-40,
and so does Mobil 1 15W-50.
If you live in Florida, I would actually recommend Mobil 1 15W-50
which meets ACEA A3/B3 and you can find it everywhere. I would suggest
the 5qt bottle at Walmart.
I'm one of the oil nerds on this site ;-)
cheers,
Jae
