oil viscosity

I couldn't find 10w40. All I could get was 5w40. I don't see a problem. Anyone see a problem?
Cheers, Elliot

I run 5W-40. For you it may not matter running 10 vs 5 weight oil. Those of us in more northern climates need the lower viscosity for better cylinder protection during warmup.
