Hey everyone: The BB is getting it's first oil change since it arrived. I'm thinking a good organic oil would be appropriate for this vintage motor with 121K on the clock.
The service records I have are not specific about what has been put in before. I use Syn in every other car but I think it might be overkill and make it leak even more. This should be fun! |

Thanks everyone! I'm thinking the VR1 sounds right, 20W50 if I can find it locally. I plan on annual changes and I doubt I'll have more than 1000 miles a year on the car. I swear that I'll sell it before I put 20,000 on it as I NEVER want to inspect the strainer again.
Replacing the IMS in my 986 wan't as stressful as that damn strainer nut. Cheers! |
