good god, please use the search function. You will find over a hundred threads debating which oil to use. If you don't want to mess with that, just put in 10w30 dino juice, like the owner's manual says to.

can't go wrong with synthetic. mOBIL 1 IS THE BEST
NO QUESTION. OIL WILL NOT WRECK YOUR FD, MODS, A HOT FOOT, AND BAD LUCK ARE THE END TO IT.
