Am I missing something or I misread trough the posts?

Thanks!

The FSM says you can use 80W-90 "For hot climates, viscosity SAE 90 is suitable for ambient temperatures above 0°C (32°F)."

As long as its GL-5, I don't think it would be that big of a deal if you went 75W or 80W-90. I always use Redline 75w-90
