    Am I operating in an inappropriate way?

    Bought a 1947 Seattle Telephone truck in 1972. $100 Now you know this was uses hard but still drove it with a used up clutch and logged with it too as it is how they are used and treated. As mentioned here, most folks don't even know how to drive like using gravity to save on brakes and wear...

    I won't be using 15-40 without a block heater here in Southcentral Alaska which is about the same clime as Minnesota. In Northern Alaska where I use to live 5-30 or lower.

    Yes, I think 15-40 is only for hot areas (country) Did a test and plugged in the block heater at 40 f. No click kacking or metal noise. Seems to be as smooth as the old 10-30. What do you think.

    Lot of it probably comes from the same source- different branding. Jap techs say use cheapest oil available and change often!

    Many more understand more common machines than tractors.
