Synthetics only in newer cars in unless you have a new motor put in that baby. I use Mobil 5000 and Mobil oil filter . If you have a oil pan gasket leak like me then 10w-30 is best it doesn't go down that fast . at first i used rotta shell oil 15w 40 since my dad uses it in his 79 el Camino with 200k plus miles but then i found out that 15w-40 what are you CRAZY! that will put allot of strain on your motor . I only like to use Sunoco, Mobil, or Hess gas, i find Citgo, Getty cheap gas with allot of dirt in it near my place .
