5w30 if you have over 10000 km. and no leaks you can choose to run a semi or full synthetic oil. its more users preference. 10w30 oil is dead they don't make cars that use it any more its all 5w30 and 5w20 . synthetic oil is for more hard working engines like highways and towing and its better for the car . a 96 eclipse will run perfect on 5w30 conventional oil under normal conditions . semi or full synthetic oil will leak more if you have leaks . and is better in the winter. there is word that switching back and forth isn't good because synthetic oil bonds to the engine but i don't know if that is fact or fiction
