SAE 30 oil. This is a light engine oil which is generally meant for lighter air-cooled engines. Just look for "SAE 30". Beetles use about 2 1/2 quarts.

There isn't a particular engine oil that is capable for use in all automobiles. You should use the one that is specified for your type of vehicle. ♥If you can't determine the type of oil you should use, here are some recommendations:SAE 40 for hot climates (i.e. Florida)SAE 10W-30 for medium climates (i.e. Iowa)SAE 5W-30 for cold climates (i.e. Montana)SAE 0W-20 or thinner for extremely cold climates (i.e. Alaska)SAE 30 for small engines
The type of oil that is recommended for Kohler engines is 10W-30 Command Oil. SAE 30 Magnum Oil is also recommended for certain Kohler engines.
I am not sure what you are wanting to use the oil for. If it is for a lawn mower, most of them take either 10w30 or SAE 30. They are not the same oil. You will need to refer to your engine manufacturer for the oil required for your engine. Normally most Briggs and Stratton and Tecumseh engines use the SAE30 oil. While most Kohler engines use 10w30.
