Straight MT90 in the winter cold is NOT as nice as my 2qt MT90 and 1 Qt MTL was last year.

Today it was fine since it's warmer but the 6 degree morning?

At my next oil change I may just do 2 BGII + 1 Heavy Shockproof - I'm always up for trying new stuff to get the best combo

They do? That might explain the oil leak on my last one.

Nothing is more fun then changing the alternator on a MK2 mr2!

Well put it this way, anytime I read an article about turbo mr2 it mentions
that it has or once had a head gasket problem. Not sure of the cause, but
I bet it would be easy to find on a board somewhere.
