Wondering what some of you guys here run in your Mutts, back when I drove them in the 80's we used 10w30, and I know the Army switched to 15w40 in everything in the 90's, any suggestions for best engine oil? Thanks

i use shell rotella in my A1, as it has sufficient zinc for this engine. new oils are fabricated to benefit vehicles with catalytic converters, which do not like zinc, but the old engines need it. 15W40 is fine for northern california, but there are other weights available if your climate is different.
