Your post is noted and recorded Thank you for your input
However I was speaking from personal experience with my `86 Accord
and I used to use deisel rated oil in my motorcycle as well until
Mobil 1 came along.(15w50)
I never had a problem with using deisel oil in my Accord.OR my bike.
I used a 10 w40 deisel oil in the summer specifiaclly for the hot
weather high speed driving I was doing
Of course in the winter I reverted to 5w 30 auto oil ( no synthetic at
the time .)-30*F at times.
This combination worked extremely well for me
By the way , deisel is good enough for deisels its good enough for
cars , particularly since it has MORE anti-wear additives such as
phophorous in it
All I can say at this point in time ? is it WORKED FOR ME ~!
In my `02 Camry I use Mobil 1 synthetic 5w30.It seems to stand up well
with practically no oil consumption on long highway trips.
If synthetic wasnt available ? you can be SURE I would use a good
quality deisel rated oil again.
