as long as there is oil in it it's not going to blow up. you can mix oils and it will be ok. it's best to keep the same weight in there though. if you do have to mix them, it'd be a good idea to change it before too long.

don't mix dino and synthetic.

You should Google 'oil grade chart' or 'oil viscosity chart'. It will help you understand the different kinds of oil, their applications in relation to temperature. It'll also help you understand what the numbers mean when reading the label on a bottle of oil.
