The Delo that you have is one of the finest oils made today. Its rating of CH-4+ in the Chevron line means it is a synthetic blend (GpIII and Gp II) with about 125 ppms of moly. You can run this oil anytime, not just winter. Remember that when the engine and oil are at temp, it has the lube qualities of a 30 viscosity oil. Frankly, where you live, there isn't a better oil.

i am not too sure how much a gallon it was they just put it on my account and the bills go to my secretary to pay, i will check into it for you. so it is ok to run the 0-30 with no problems and i can go on say an 8 hour long trip with no problems?
in the summer i will put the 15-40 in though
