"However, with the differential expansion of the steel cylinder liners and the aluminum engine block and heads, the 10W-30 leaks quite a bit. After talking to many local alfa service shops and restorers, the consensus seemed to be to use a 20-50 weight oil in the alfa engines. Since I like to use Mobil 1 synthetic oil, 15W-50 is the closest choice to a traditional 20-50 dino oil."
Ahh . . . makes sense to me. Thanks for the input!
I'll bet the "Alfa Song" sounds particularly good in the Great Northwest . . .
