what type ??
rings, bearing shells, orings, valves, valve seals, machined crank and cylinder bush. almost everyting what you can replace due rebuild.
usually run the first 500 miles on a decent mineral oil ..Then use a decent semi synthetic oil for the next 1000 miles at least in my opinion though i usually run it for 5000 miles ..
then run a fully synthetic from then on..
usually drop the oil at 500 miles then every 3000..
as for type usually run 15/40
lots of engine braking for the first 100 to help the rings bed in
yes, i allready done this stage, and wondering witch oil use nowOriginally Posted by MAXIBOY
Normal 10w-40 semi synthetic, or if you got a bit more cash bet fully synthetic
10w40 and 5w40 have same price...
what manufacture you suggesst. elf, castrol, shell helix, ??
I normally use Valvoline oils unless i'm buying from renault. However I've just discovered Millers have launched a budget brand called Falcon (to not devalue the "Millers" name. It's millers oil, in a differently labeled bottle.
