testy Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 I just bought myself a 1991 Subaru Loyale with 160 000 kms on it, 5 speed, and 4wd. Oil changes are a good thing to do when you buy a used car and I was wondering what oil weight I should run. Ive heard 10w40 is a good choice? Thanks.

misledxcracker Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Personally, I use 10w30 in cars that dont burn or leak oil... But if it does, try 10w40. Also, if the Soob has the Tick Of Death (lifter tick) a quart of MMO is a small investment to add to your oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havent had it long enough to find a leak. I guess Ill try the 10w30 and see if she blows. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
