I have a 1994 jeep wrangler with a 4.0... I have read about the whole Zinc thing and the 4.0's having flat tappet cams. First off the cam is stock as is the rest of the motor internally. I use the jeep as a daily driver and thrash it when i get the chance.
So i want to know whats the best off the shelf easy to find and fairly cheap oil i should use. I see that the Valvoline VR1 has a lot of Zinc in it but it dont come in a 10w40... Could i run 20w50 or the 40 weight in it which would be better?
I see that Valvoline sells Conventional Racing Oil to in the same weights but its for offroad use only... we don't have emissions testing here so it don't matter.
