Last oil change i used 5W40 (im pretty sure) and it was fully synthetic.
Will it be alright to change to 10W40 semi now?
It needs an oil change, But like i have read and agree its not a sports engine so im not looking to overspend any more, But i still want to make sure it runs well.

Any other suggestions?
