Which oil to use?

[footbrake]

Hi, on my AQ231A volvo-pents motor can I use a synthetic oil like Brad Penn or Royal Purple, like I use in my racecar? Also what weight would you consider. a straight weight or multi weight. thanks

oooh another oil thread..... going to get popcorn.

seriously, should be a sticker on top the flame arrestor with weight. put in dino oil, synthetic, synthetic blend..... if it makes you feel better.

I run 15W-40 in my boat year round. Also run it in the Audi so I always have it on hand along with 5w-30 for the wifes car.
