new engine
#18
I used straight 30W non detergent oil (break in oil) for the first 50 miles to get the rings seated in good. High detergent, high quality oils work too good and the rings will just glaze the cylinders and not cut in. Then a good quality 10W-30 for the next 1500. After that just regular changes.
