20w-50 is good for your engine since a bit old na ang engine. pero try mo rin ang 10w-40 kung walang leak ang engine mo mas magaan kasi ang feel nito.

I also use 20w 50 on my 2E motor and shifted to 15w 40 less weigt and improved my fuel consunmption.

its just viscosity grade, the higher the number thicker the oil, on hot weather like philippines you may want a thicker viscosity like 10w-40 or 20w-50. Specially your 2E is old and i bet compression is a little off ok way off the original ratio.

Thanks. So do you think i'll stay using the 20W-50 for my 2E?

You'll be fine... I use 20w-50 VR1 racing on my track car for 4yrs now, one thing i like about it is after all day of 9,200rpm redline to redline VR1 will not thin out on you.
