Title: Re: what oil to use??? Post by: mcl1959 on November 07, 2006, 06:00:52 AM SAE 50 engine oil or SAE 90 transmission oil is what is specified in the owners manual. I've always used the SAE 50 as it's what I've had lying around.
FWIW the oil bath air filter is a far better air filter than the later dry element one, so if you want to put a "real air filter" on your car than use the oil bath one. There are 2 reasons why they were discontinued - the first because of the danger of oil spillage over the engine in an accident and the second because of inadvertant spillage during servicing which can be very annoying and messy.
