oil weight
Oil weight is how thick or thin the engine oil is. It’s important to use the right thickness for your car, especially in different weather conditions, to keep the engine running smoothly.
Oil weight refers to the viscosity of engine oil, which affects how well it lubricates engine components. Different weights are recommended for different temperatures and conditions, and using the wrong weight can lead to engine problems.
