    I use Castrol 10/40 drive hard. During the hot summer I sometime use
    20/50 During the winter 20/50 will cause the clutch to drag when cold

      I like the slippery kind that comes in a bottle.

      Seriously. That thing won't care what you put in it, so long as there's enough.
      I'm willing to bet it would run happily on Wesson.

      The shaft, on the other hand, I refuse to skimp. Crisco all the way, baby!

        I used Castrol 20w50 for many years until recently. I changed to Mobil 1 15w50. Either will do fine. The Mobil 1 runs a little cooler. Stay away from the extended milage automotive oils. With the overall excellent quality of modern oils, the most important consideration is to keep the oil clean. Change the oil and oil filter regularly. I change both at 1500 miles.

        I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. H.D.T.

          I have to qualify my response a little:

          Get the fewest additives you can. Remember, this is an oil soaked clutch, designed when oils were pretty much just oil.
