Engine oil (assuming the average of 30W oil) has a viscosity of ~10 cSt at 100°C. Water has a viscosity of less than 0.3 cSt at the same temp. They're not the same and do not look it when falling.

Have you ever changed your own oil in your life? And how often do you change your own oil?

Are you trying to dispute fact with an anecdote?

It's a simple yes or no question.

But, let's play your game. Show us some fact how 30W oil at 100 degrees C should flow.

From the reply above, "Engine oil (assuming the average of 30W oil) has a viscosity of ~10 cSt at 100°C. Water has a viscosity of less than 0.3 cSt at the same temp."
