What oil do you recommend for my 914 daily driver? I use Castrol GTX 10/40 but have seen some posts that you shouldn't use any multi-viscosity oil less than 20/50 because of lower oil pressure at idle that may cause a flickering oil pressure light. I've also heard some people who use straight 40 weight or even straight 50 weight oil. What weight and brand is best for good oil pressure?

I am going to try Mobil 1 15w-50 synthetic soon. It is readily available and I like the idea of it being synthetic. It also has large amounts of zinc, many people on the pelican board like it as well. |
