Best oil to quiet "tapping"

[pushrod]

Man, that Zuki looks nasty. What kind of oil
and interval was used?

 

[mdocod]

I bought the zuki 3.5k ago... So I have no IDEA what oil was used before hand, nore what the interval was... I'm guessing.. that's it's been changed about every 10-20k miles before I bought it.

Oh man, that's NASTY.

Good luck on all of that.

 

[Schism]

I'm curious as to whether or not you have an update on this?

I've tried penz and QS. I pretty much stay away from supporting them though. I'm not a big fan of the horror stories of the jiffy lube service. (owned by penz/quaker)...

unfortunately for you pennzoil/quaker state is now owned by shell. so if you are still going with this then you lose out on a lot of products. rain-x, rotella, penn, qs, fix a flat, gumout, wolfs head, black magic, etc. shell has actually owned penn/qs since late 2002.

PAO and GPII and GPIII oils do not "wet" well IMHO try a ester type like RL that has a higher wetting ability.
