Guess i should explain what he meant by bogging . The engine didn't rev as fast with the thicker oil . It seemed sluggish . I guess when people say bogging you would think of the engine sputtering or almost shutting off .[/QUOTE]

yes i agree thicker oil doesn't flow as well, and with our engines its even more noticeable because its smaller. no doubt you can see/feel gains or loss of power.
