Good evening Ladies and Gents!
I am looking for a oil recommendation for my '67 Cadillac Deville. It has supposedly 40K miles on it, but the odometer only goes to 99,999 miles, so who knows.
The owners manual recommends 30W oil for the vehicle at above 40F degree temperatures.
I am in San Diego. The lows right now are in the mid 50s, and I do not expect it to get much/any colder.
I drive easy as it's an older vehicle, but sometimes I do go on road trips of more than a few hundred miles.
I ride a mix of freeway and city stop and go, usually at least 15 minutes at a time.
The only problems that the car has is that it eats oil. I typically put in a half quart every 10 gallons. It does not leak.
I use synthetic oil in my motorcycles, but am unsure about running it in this vehicle.
I read your stickied post about oil recommendations and figured that I would get more consideration if I posed my question with the above info
Thank you very much for reading my post!
