Best Answer

Many people use gasoline engines. Most new engines require only 5W - 30 oil mutiviscosity for comfortable driving. For older engines you can choose 10W-30 or 10W-40. Heavier multiviscosity oils such as 20W-40 are for high rpm, high-load applications mainly but avoid using it in extreme weather.
