Default RE: oil question

Mobil 1 will not cause you a problem. Heck, it'll save you problems down the road.
Your old 5W40 was thicker than 10W30 so it may have masked an existing problem. Now that your using a lighter weight oil it is exposing a problem.

Make sure you have ENOUGHOil.
If you have sticky valves you can put in some product to
get rid of sticking valves.
