Mobile 1 15W50 in the crankcase, dino 20W50 in the primary, and Mobile 1 75W90 in the tranny.
For some sordid reason that I don't really understand, I just love oil threads. You couldn't mistake this one for anything else when you look at the title.

Simple, any good synthetic; except, syn 3. Why? poor to no detergents allowing carbon to build up creating more heat and a poor breathing engine.
