10w-40 oil quites my 22RE
I just changed the oil in my truck a week ago.
I usually fill with 10w-30. This time I added 10w-40.
This did reduce the noise from my engine...it does seem to take a little power out of the engine as well. I would guess do to the thicker oil.
I want to make sure this won't hurt my engine though.
Anyone have any insight?
Thanks
Joel

I am sure you would not notice any difference in power between the two oils. I am running 20W50 in mine with no problems. Owners manual gives you a chart as to what temperature to run what oil. It has been a hot summer and a loud 22re so I went with the 20w50.
