I've been having oil pressure issues as well as a random stalling when cold. An old timer suggested a heavier weight oil to help with pressure? Anyone tried this? I plan to try the engine cleaner suggested and additive but am curious what the heavier weight would do. Does everyone run the...- Andrew1068
