Re: oil change
how much do u wana spend
royal purple is the best i think or so people say, costs the most too, like $5 a quart. uneccessary thoh unless you have a pretty built motor, ne certified oil should be fine.
maybe 10w-30 during the summer and a 5w during winter.-RJ \"Like trail mix I\'m a lil sweet but mostly nutty\"<br />Metallic Blue 2001 3.8 Firebird M5<br />FRA,Smoothed Air lid, Homedepot Intake, K&N Air Filter, MSD Coils & Plug wires, Iridium Plugs, Flash Tune, 2.5 Flowmaster Catback.

Re: oil change
I run 10w40 now... Works great, just all depends on how you drive the car really, and then temperatures, and a little on engine wear.
I run 10w40 because my motor has almost 150k miles on it, and when I drive it, I drive for 100+ miles generally without stopping.
Just gotta make sure your oil temp comes up a little bit before playing because it doesn't move quite as fast as 5w30...1995 Camaro 3.4 A4<br /><br />CAI,IAT Relocate
