Thats the one .. the multi weight 20-50w .. had mine delivered at no cost and got a 15 buck gift card because I was over a hundred .. worked pretty good 130 +/- to the door ... another local pelican got to the three az in town before I could get there and emptied the shelves ...

Great oil and good numbers ... Plus for the price .... the 911 holds 11qts .. good thing it only gets changed annually ..........

Hey guys, not trying to hi-jack this thread but will the air-cooled engine in the 914 run hotter or cooler with the Brad-Penn 20w-50 oil vs. 10W-30 weight (assuming summer months). I am referring to the oil temps as read by the factory temp gauge or a dip stick thermometer.

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

The car needs to be sitting level to completely drain. Drain it with the ass in the air on stands or ramps, and you leave a qt. of oil in the case. If this is a new to you car and you have no idea of past maintenance, I suggest you remove and inspect the sump. It could warn you of potential problems. After that, every other change.
