I don't want to stir up the oil debate but....
The only Royal Purple I found at FLAPS is 5W 30.. is this OK to use on a 2056 FI? And how many quarts go in? With a non started motor, should I pour some in the oil filter too? |

20w 50 conventional, 15w40 or 15w50 in synthetic. NEVER anything lighter unless you live where it's gonna be REAL cold while you're operating your 914.
