MIxing differant weight oils
If I mix 5w/20wt oil and 5w/30wt oil in equal amounts does anyone know if this will give me 5w/25wt oil.

No. The heavier oil will sink to bottom. Once it is running it mixes well.
Mixing different weight oils to get a certain weight doesn't work.
I would have to think on it a bit to give a thorough answer. It's been a while.
Someone els her knows how it works.
