I can believe this hasn't been discussed ad nauseum, but I did a search and couldn't find anything. Time to change oil. Any suggestions as to which oil to use?

Used 30w Kendall GT1 in my 911. I have seen 30W Castrol foam in air cooled VW engines when they are not run up to oprating temps for a reasonable amount of time, Kendall GT1 did not seem to have this problem.
Redline 10/40W in my Ferrari, but a lot of those folks also swore by Royal Purple... Redline in my 240Z, Saturn and Hyundai over the years too. |
