You can get a gallon of 20/50 comma from Parkers motor factors for about £12, fine for running in. If it's going to do 500miles and get chucked then it doesn't matter. Then spend a bit more on decent oil. Lots of threads on here about oils... |

Penrite specific 20w50 running in oil Edited by Sprocket on 9th Oct, 2011. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

Unipart 20w50 for older engines - has the correct ZDDP levels according to the can.
Metric is for people who can't do fractions. |

We are using the standard Halfords mineral 20-50W, not the classic stuff. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
