Great New Year To All:

Read with interest the oil advice. Don't have an M35........yet.
I've found that the 15W40 too thick when it gets much below 20 F.
Slower cranking speeds.

My compromise was to switch to a good 10W30 winter oil, diesel
rated, with the 15W40 spring to fall.
A good synthetic 15W40 would also take care of this, but I
change out the oil about every 3000 miles.

Regards,
Ted.
