what is the problaly the best oil to use on ZC motor?

 

Best oil? I dont know about that one but i use


Mobil 1 Synthetic (The Gold Cap one) 10-30

 

the best oil would be a full synthetic (max life, valvoline, mobile 1)

but it doesnt really matter what brand you go with, a synthetic is a synthetic. only real difference is the additives in each one.

its like choosing between burger king and mcdonalds... they both sell cheeseburgers that are marinated in grease (which is what makes them good), but its just a matter of personal preference of brands/companys

but if your talking about oil weights, like... 5w30, 10w30, 5w20 etc... that just depends on the seaons your driving in.

Burger King flame broils. And they have the king, would you really want to mess with him?

 

SEARCH!!!.........there is like a bajillion gazillion posts on this ****!

Royal Purple FTMFW tho..

 

Your probally going t get 1000 different answers on this. In no particular order though: Mobil1 sythetic, Royal Purple, Redline, Ams Oil.

 

yes i have heard royal purple is the best bet

 

i use the 79cent stuff from walmart (10w30)

 

It does matter.
There is some test where they heat the oil to see how much of it evaporates. I forget the name of the test but Castrol Syntec beat most everyone else.
IMHO, I read alot about AmsOil.
That is probably the best.
Check it out.

Bingo, all 100% man made synthetic. Most are made from dino oil. Do some reading and you will be suprized what a company can call "synthetic" I run amsoil in my ****, my truck holds 15 liters of 15w40

Precisely. I'm amazed at how so many people still do not know about bob's forum.

For synthetic my vote would be for GC (German Castrol) 0W-30. Havoline 10W-30 for conventional.

 

Mobil 1 full synthetic

 

i am very poor, so I used mobil 1 5w-30 synthetic blend

 

I use Amsoil full synthetic 10w-30 for my engine and Amsoil 5w-30 synchromesh for my tranny. Quality ****.
