It's a simple question but tried to search and couldn't find an answer. My 1976 manuel says to use SAE 30- API specs "SD or SE". Tried to buy this and found out no one has it. Does anyone know what Porsche has to say and if there was a bulletin issued for the correct oil to use in todays market. Thanks...

Chris,
I THINK most break in oils have almost ZERO detergents. This keeps the assembly lube on the moving parts far longer than detergent oil would. This allows the engine to have a better chance of break in than using a detergent oil. Therefore break in oil is for just break in. Not for year around use on a street car. The above data comes from memory of one of Jakes threads. I didn't know this till he explained it to us on one of his oil / break in threads. If I have mis-spoke. He should be along soon to straighten me out. C |
