There's an entire section of forum devoted to oil and oil questions.

We all use different stuff in different situations.

Asking what oil you should use is like asking what beer you should drink.

dozen people - dozen answers - most likely many different from the other.


If your major concern is sticking within the bounds of the warranty - use what's recommended in your manual.

Otherwise.... happy reading and you might want some good beer to go along with it.....
