Question

Just wondered what everyone is running their cherished motors on. I have heard differing views.

e.g. Fully synthetic 5-40 Good or Bad…… some say 15-50 semi synthetic is the best choice……

Anyone care to comment??

Cheers

Julian

Castrol RS 10W/60, Redline 15W/50 and Motul V300 15W/50 is my vote.

Julian,

You need to read these threads m8. You will need an hour or so. They talk about big end failures and what oil you should use. Advice on these threads is from the best techs on the board.
