Plugged the mobil specifications in here,
https://widman.biz/English/Calculators/Graph.html at -4f 0w-40 is thinner than 5w-30.Oops
SAE Grade 5W-30
Viscosity @ 100ºC, cSt (ASTM D445) 11.0
Viscosity, @ 40ºC, cSt (ASTM D445) 61.7
SAE Grade 0W-40
Viscosity @ 40ºC 70.8
Viscosity @ 100ºC 12.9
Mobil only lists MRV for the 0W-40 and not the 5w-30. I think the real comparison for oil pump ability when cold is MRV and CCS from my understanding.
