Accidentally added 0-20

PCT · Oct 10, 2017

I did an oil change on my truck which calls for 5-20, I added my 5 quarts of 5-20, and my buddy handed my my 0-20 which is for the dart cause they're the same look. Should I do another oil change?

It's up to you, if you was to go to the dealer you might get 7 Qts of 0/20. Personally if it was mine I'd use 5/30.

No you're fine. The 0w20 is the same viscosity at operating temp as the 5w20. The 20 is what matters in this email two oils. The 0w flows better at colder temps than the 5w.

1 qrt of 0-20 isn't going to hurt anything? It's 4.7 btw

Sorry, I'm stuck on either 3.6 or 5.7. 6 Qts for one 7 for the other. Either way both if mine say to run 5/20 but I run 5/30 in both. Both are much smoother and quieter. Gas milage not effected, at least not enough to be noticeable..
