'95 Camry 5S-FE 217k

[JustinC25]

I'm wondering if anyone knows what conventional oils have shown the best numbers in a 5s-fe (2.2L) UOA? I am not interested in any synthetic. (Please no amsoil recomendations, I have nothing against it, it is just readily available to me.)
My car currently has 217k, though I rebuilt the engine at 165k. (Used short block with 35k from a 2001, new rings, rod and main bearings, new valves, and oil pump.)
I can't seem to find any used oil analysis for the 4cyl with dino.

I ran GTX 10w30 exclusively till 4 oil changes ago when I ran Mobil Clean 7500 5w30 1 time, and the engine seemed louder. So I tried GTX 5w30. Then Formula Shell 5w30 with the V6 filter(Purolator L10241). And the same shell and filter again this time.

Thanks in advance,
Justin

If you want to stick with a dino, I'd probably use Rotella T CJ-4 10w30, which is an extremely robust oil.

Anyone know where I can find a HDEO 10w30 in NH ?
15w40 is everywhere, but no one carries 10w30 hdeo.

Walmart carries the Rotella 10W30.

You don't have to run HDEO...I see no problem with GTX 10w30 Summer 5w30 Winter...

You need to find a store that caters to farmers/ranchers like Orchard Supply, Rural King, Farm & Fleet (These are regional chains, I don't know what your regional equivalents would be.)
