It should work fine. Be on the lookout for gasket leaks if it's a high-mileage engine.

Normal not synthetic.
You need to remove the accesory bracket from the engine. Powere steering pump, ac compressor, alternator and then the bracket. Then you can get the pump out. Not a lot of fun.
Short of a complete engine rebuild, you could try a heavier viscosity synthetic oil. However, this is just a temporary fix at best. If you are hearing excessive lifter/rod noise, the engine is in need of major service.
As this is a 2 cycle engine that incorporates an oil injections system you need to use a good synthetic 2 stroke oil. Any major brand will be excellent.
automatic transmission fluid,preforably a synthetic or synthetic blended fluid.

what is the ignition timing for a 1988 Chevy 454 engine
Yes but once you do there is no turning back and no mixing regular motor oil ever again with the synthetic oil....only straight synthetic....or use semi synthetic....now that can be mixed with regular motor oil in a pinch.
If it is a flat fout PETROL, then no, it doesn't. If it is diesel, then yes.
A lot depends on two things , first is it a diesel or petrol and second how old is the vehicle. There are many different oils out there but I have always used Castrol Magnatec on my 318i 1988 since I ve had it(1992) and covered 166000 miles. For a new or newer BMW I would use the best Synthetic you can afford.
