Listen, it can take weeks to get up enough energy to get "frisky" and even then it is more a chore than a pleasure. I got nothing to prove...did that and overdid that decades ago. Give me a bacon and egg sandwich and I can know what real pleasure is and if I am careful there is little or no clean-up when I'm done!

There are many good synthetics nowadays.....whatever one you like is better than conventional oil.
In my old '55 Chevy I used to use recycled oil....15 cents a quart. Came in glass jars at the Deeprock station with a spout on them ready to pour. It ran and/or burned out almost as fast as I put it in. Picked up a date once and her dad came out and told me not to come in the neighborhood again in "that oil burning piece of junk". I was "frisky" back then so it didn't matter...after the night was over I was done with her anyhow!
Regards!
