Engine oil VALVOLINE or Lucas
Used it for years in high mileage motors. 215,000 on a 1.8 turbo VW
used no oil between 5,000 mile changes.
Ok, so here’s my anecdote: a friend of mine had an old Ranger that had an oil pump failing. He didn’t want to pay me or anyone else to pull the engine and replace the pump so I suggested he just throw a bottle of this in there and see what happens.
Well, his oil light went off and oil pressure improved.
For the money the best zinc content is valvoline vr1 CONVENTIONAL (not synthetic). It comes in a few flavors.
I use Valvoline 0W-20 full synthetic and an OEM filter.
I used to run the 10w-40 Valvoline high mileage synthetic blend from Walmart.
I use conventional 20W-50 VR1 for oil, love it.
As a Shop owner that Services a ton of Euro Cars we pretty much use all the Valvoline Euro Spec'ed Oil. They meet all the OEM requirements as we've also sent it in for testing. I have a 2014 CC APR Stage 3+ and thats what I run, Valvoline 5W40 Euro. No Issues.
Valvoline vr1 20w50 I'm convinced they basically make it for rotary's to begin with.
I've been using the valvoline personally and like it better than the pennzoil platinum.
Used this for years in my 4 strokes. Quality oil.
