Quick oil question
I just got a 93 sc300 a 5 speed and the guy told me he just changed the oil with some mobil 1 10w-30. But on the cap its says 5w-30 will it have done any, or will do any harm?

Won't hurt a thing, run the 10w30, matter of fact the 10w30 has a better used oil analysis then the 5w30.

should be fine. im taking a guess at your milage here, but with a 92 and a good 100k + miles on the engine, it actually helps prolong engine life.
