Oil light goes out quicker than even with 5W.
SX4 starts at 30 below without being plugged in, though is reluctant.
Transmission is slow to respond too.
I do have to be careful about shutting this one off though. If at operating temp
the carb dries out overnight and takes a lot of cranking to get if full again.
BUT if I restart it about an hour after shutdown, the carb refills and it starts
OK the next day.
First one of mine that has had this idiosyncrasy.
