Hi all,
I've got a 1984 Volkswagen Rabbit with a 1.6L diesel in it. Not sure what would be the best oil to use in it. I used Rotella-T and Delvac in my old Cummins powered Dodge years ago, but obviously this Rabbit is not nearly as heavy duty as the Cummins.
I've seen Valvoline's new Premeum Blue diesel oil, which looks good to me since I use Valvoline in my gas engines already. And Farm and Fleet has Mystic brand diesel oil in all different weights, which also brings me to the question: what weight oil should I use? 10W40, 15W40, SAE30, SAE40, etc???
This thing is driven 80 miles a day, on my 2 hour long rural newspaper delivery route.
Thanks!
