alpine4 Junior Member Registered: 28/06/09 Posts: 6 Loc: Pacific Northwest	I have been running 5 30 oil in the winter months then change over to 10 30 in the summer. Now I am wondering is that really necessary? I was told 5 30 works great all year round. I live in the Northwest so I doesn't get extremely hot for long periods of time. Should I continue changing weight for different seasons, or keep it the same all year long?
