That's pretty homo.

Anyways, for 5w40 its about 35 seconds, 10w30 about 60 seconds, and regular 15w40 takes a full 80 seconds!

Gay is used quite a bit up here, in Winnipeg at least. Homo is synonymous with gay.

damn, cant find it!

It was a link from a thread, but I cannot find the thread.

All it showed was a chart when the engine got pressure to the top, my summary of what it showed basically paints the chart perfectly, there's no "extra info" in the chart IIRC.

I got it to work, you have to cut and paste the link, not click on it.

also notice, the 5w40 gives the most pressure after oil pressure has stablized.

Why? Because it's moving through the oil filter faster.

BTW, the 10w30 is thicker then the 5w40 at that temperature.
