Gasoline or gasahol? So confused
canthai55 replied to problemfarang's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Agreed. In any car made since before the turn of the century ethanol blended fuel will work fine. Many people telling old wives tales from the days of carbs and leaded fuel. My bike sat almost 7 years full of gasahol. No issue. -

Ford Laser GLX 2002, 1.6 engine. (Which oil should I use?)
canthai55 replied to Aina24's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
10W40 will work fine. Just get the newest formulation - they are now at SP, but SM or SN are good for MY 1996 on. Gotta love people who go to oil companies websites and ask for oil recommendations - I wonder why they list the most expensive oil ? 555 -

How practical is an Electric motorbike?

The very small ones are not legal for the road, so no insurance or license plate available -
Asked the wife to go see the neighbor. He has a (cough cough) good knowledge of herbs. He said that Kratom is only grown in the south of Thailand. The link above is a seller from NST so it may be true.

OP - 10W30 will suit you just fine. Change the filter at each oil change - they are cheap. Our town car is a 2001, 1.6 litre. When I bought it was a one owner car with a full service history. Nissan records until end of warranty and then the same local garage until I bought it. Always 10W30. Always a new filter. Over 220,000 Km now and burns not a drop. To add - it has been on LPG since new, which many on this forum will say causes the valves to burn out and results in decreased engine life. Well - it does not. Frequent oil changes are the key to long engine life. -
Find the model you are interested in Go to 12Car, Kaidee, there are many websites Search for your vehicle - all the options you would like will come up on the different listings - color, mileage, etc Compare prices - this will get you a value

So why does Honda recommend 5W20 oils in new car models sold in this country ? Does it only get 20C where they drive Hondas ??? Many vehicles sold in this country recommend 10W30 - like our town car a 2001 and our highway car a 2013. Both sold in this country - the town car was MADE here 555 -

I lived in Yukon for over 25 years. Saw temps of -67C = -88.6F Never used any oil like -67W30 Used 0W30 full syn. Altho' we never drove in those temps - steel shatters like glass. Think leaf springs -

canthai55 replied to Aina24's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
And where did you get this info ? How can outside temp make any difference ? The 10W30 designation on engine oil means that the viscosity of the oil is rated at 10W when an engine is cold and 30 when the engine is hot. This is different than an oil labelled 5W30, which has a thinner viscosity when the engine is cold at 5W. A quality conventional motor oil will tolerate oil sump temperatures of up to 250 degrees, but starts breaking down over 275 degrees. The traditional approach is to try to hold oil temperatures between 230 and 260 degrees. https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/engine-oil-temperature/ -

Go to any local shop that sells PTT oil, or Bang Chak, or any other oil produced domestically. Use 10W30, change every 5-10,000 Km It ain't no Bugatti -
Just more Internet Einsteins quacking about a subject they know absolutely nothing about. Ivermectin - along with many many other drugs - may well have other uses than the "Just for Horses" BS spouted by Big Pharma and their cohorts in the FDA. Ongoing research is showing this to be true, but you can bet your Gluteus Maximus that all the stops are being pulled out to have this stopped, or discredited. No money to be made by the big boys. Much research has been stopped this way - and it will continue.

You might check with the motor vehicle department in your state. I just renewed my Canada DL - Yukon - got the eye test and medical done here. Sent them a copy. Good to go
