I run Mobil 1 15W-50 year round

has the highest ZDP(?) of any major oil (but only the 15-50 none of the 
others)

SAE 30 is to thin, my oil pressure light will flicker in the summers on 30 weight. With 50 weight, no problems.  I drive my bus all year round.  This is my first winter with this motor.  1600DP. All stock.  I was thinking of going down to SAE 40, for the winter as the 50 weight seems too thick on start up. I'm curious what oil and brand you guys are running.
