30 weight non-detergent oil is what was used in the 20s. But you can and should use SAE 30 High Detergent oil today as it will provide many benefits. If you have been using non-detergent oil then there is more than likely a sludge buildup in the engine at this time. You should not switch to High Detergent oil unless the engine has been rebuilt and totally cleaned. The reason is that the HD oil will loosen all this sludge and contaminate your crankcase. So, if you know the engine is clean then use SAE 30W otherwise use 30W non-detergent oil.

Where do you fill oil in a model t?

In a Model T Ford, oil is filled through the oil fill cap, which is located on the top of the engine's crankcase. To add oil, you typically remove the cap and pour the oil directly into the crankcase. It's important to check the oil level regularly, as the Model T's engine has a unique design that requires proper lubrication for optimal performance. Always use the recommended oil type for the best results.

Where do you fill the automatic gearbox oil 1972 ford mustang?

Your question is confusing. An A/T does not use gear oil, it uses A/T fluid. Some manual transmissions do use A/T fluid but I know of A/T that uses gear oil. But the answer is the same for both manual and A/T. You add fluid at the same place you check the fluid level.
