More oil
I had a very nice conversation recently with Randi Galanowski, a Customer relations representative for Castrol oil. The gist of the matter is that 15W40 made to meet API (American Petroleum Institute) classification CG-4, CG-4, CF/SJ, SH is now the way to go. Classifications CC and CD no longer exist and are considered obsolete. The "C" designations are generally for diesel, the "S" for gasoline, although they seem to overlap a lotThe problems are: "flowability" (viscosity) of the oil COLD, (most critical during cold start-up), and HOT, where a non-multigrade would loose viscosity, or thickness, allowing shear and the dreaded metal to metal at high speeds: translate to excessive wear and expensive noises. Multi-grades contain viscosity improvers which actually allow the flow of a light oil with the lubrication of a heavier oil.Later Yanmar data indicates they recommend 15W40 to API CD. They simply haven't gotten around to updating their specification to API CF or CG-4.I've run multigrade for decades now in diesels, gas and racing, and have yet to experience the first oil related problem.Go with 15W40 and be confident and happy.
