I just recently switched my 3 diesel tractors over to 5W40. They all had started hard in the winter, but I was hesitant due to their age ('77, '84, '86) However, no leaks so far. I am not convinced that 5W30 would hold up to the summer heat while mowing in my 3 gas mowers ('64, '67, '67). I have been using the 10W30 in my Buick LeSabre, just seemed that thicker oil would be good for it.
