recommended viscosity

[rbade12 at aol.com]

 I'm in the Midwest and our weather is waaaaay worse than yours...I'm joking, comparable temp-wise I suspect. I use 10w40 in winter, Syntec. What have you done the previous 17 winters? 

Put snows on today, Hankook Winter I-Pikes, wonderful snow tire IMO

For those of you living in the Northeast, what weight of oil do you  
use?  I've been using 15-50 full synthetic Red LIne, but I'm tempted  
to make a change and run a lighter weight in my '91 200 20 v.   
Although Red Line is pricey, I'll probably stick with it.  It has not  
been much of an issue in the past since I was using the car so little  
but now I need it much more often, especially with the upcoming move  
from NYC to southern VT.  I've just passed the 130K mark (and I've had  
the 200 since new) and I plan to see more than twice that amount of  
mileage before I'm done with this car.  Thanks.  Scott
