    Question Oil question

    Brad Penn will be my next change, but which breed? Partial Synthetic? Standard racing oil? I've flushed it twice changing filters and cleaning screens and the oil is clear now. It has 108K on the 2.4 and is a bit tired, but has good oil pressure and makes no questionable noises.

    I would think the more viscus variety like 20/50 would be better? Or straight 40?

    I run PennGrade 20W-50 in our 69S with good success (so far). Doesn't leak anymore than VR1 we have also used.

    Penn is on its way, but in the meantime, until I can get it to the shop for a change this? https://rislone.com/products/hy-per-...dp-supplement/

    Has 20-50 Castrol that so clean it is hard to see the level on the stick.
