Castrol 10W40. I had a friend who worked for an oil testing comany back in 95. Castrol was the best of all oils they tested. That was beofre the big synthetic push, & synthetics even then were better than conventional, but Castrol was the best conventional then & I don't see any reason to change now. I would think if they aren't the best, they'd still be right up there.

10w-40 unless I know or feel like its gonna be wicked cold then I might use 5w-30. Mostly 10w-40. Brand changes month to month. I work at a dealer shop, often its Mobil bulk oil.

I like using Wynns oil treatment when the Wynns guy gives me free samples.
