You could if you really wanted.

I know in the cooler months here, 10w30 is bordering on not being a good idea based on the temps on the bottle.

W/ the imported engines I like to run on qt of Rislone and the rest 5W20 just to get things inside a lil cleaner

Also Run some Gumout Regane in the fuel system to clean that out
