Hello,
Sorry for my first post being a topic like this, but I'm about ready for an oil change, and I wanted to know what you guys would recommend for my engine (I'm assuming that matters a bit). Also, I live in the eastern part of Tennessee.... temperatures usually range from 15 degrees fahrenheit on cold days in the winter to 98 degrees fahrenheit on certain days in the summer.
It's a well-running car (for it to have 100k on it), and I'd like to keep it that way (bonus points for performance boosts). Bought it as a wreck, but I figure whoever had it before the wreck did a good job of keeping it up.
Anyways, I'm leaning towards Royal Purple, but I can't find a whole lot of information on them (yes, I've spent a lot of time searching). Most of the stuff I CAN find on them seems to be either from Royal Purple or places that exclusively sale Royal Purple.
So, can anyone give me suggestions on the weight and brand of oil that I should use. I'm willing to pay up to $8 a quart or so.
