I'd dump that 5-30 real fast. Go to at least a 15-40 or 20-50. 20 wt. is pretty thin at room temp. I'd only use a 15-40 in winter. These oils aren't thick enough to cause problems, but a too thin oil sure will.

A new, tight bearing clearance engine may be OK with 0-30 wt synthetic, but your clearances are probably pretty loose by now.
