The PO has put synthetic in the case of My Type IV since he got it.
The motor drips a little. Is synthetic to thin? Should I keep going synthetic? |

Castor oil is very expensive, and not recommended for automotive applications.
AND, as anyone who knows any French will tell you, Castor oil is made from freshly squeezed Beavers, as found on the Canadian $0.05 piece. I like to use synthetic blends myself, not too $$$, and I just use the recommended 30W. |
