Best Answer

20W-50 motoroil is the correct weight for many air cooled engines. This weight of oil is thicker and tolerates higher engine temperatures. Harley Davidson motorcycles, turbocharged automobiles are two common uses. One additional consideration would be the use of synthetic motoroils as these oils do not suffer breakdown (boiling off, burning, blackening) at higher engine temperatures. Examples: Mobil One Synthetic 20W-50.
