QUOTE(Iceman74 @ Oct 31 2023, 06:55 AM) Hi, does engine oil have expiration date? Found unopened engine oil that left in storeroom for sometime, can use it? mineral engine oil last around 5 years meanwhile semi synthetic and fully engine oil last 7 to 8 years ( unopened containers ) source : https://www.autozone.com/diy/motor-oil/does...20eight%20years.

If ask Old Foreman sure they ask to use 5w40 as usual

Sorry, just wondering is it ok to mix 2 different viscosity oil in one engine. I have been using OW-20 and I switched to 10W-40 oil. So for my next service I would like to switch back to 0W-20 because it was recommended in the manual but I have like maybe about 500ml of 10W-40 left. So I was wondering I could mix them together?
