We have just put new PC's in my 2.0 and I have been using valvoline VR1 but a guy told me yesterday that when they run in rally car engines they use a thicker oil. Does that ring any bells with you guys?
I know Penn or my VR1 is ok normally but is it better to run new pots in with heavier oil for a while? |
