Default Oil

Just wanted some opinions, if going with standard, not synthetic oil, what is the brand in 20w50 that you like best?

I know that I might get flamed for not just answering your question...mostly by guys who just KNOW the answer.

There is an oil section in the forum with thousands of opinions, a search will uncover thousands more about oil in other sections that should have been in the oil section. If you take some of your time the answer you want is already there. Not trying to be short, cute or a bully .... really, just read up on the choices and you will notice a trend towards around a only a around a hundred favorites.

In my opinion it is much more important to keep the oil clean and serviced to correct level, than what it says on the can. I am also simple minded so I use the same 15/50 synthetic in all the holes. Good luck with your quest
