Having a problem finding out which oil to use in in my 94 hyndai Excel. 10w30 or 10w40?

Question:
My car didn't have an owners manual. And there's no sticker on it anywhere like there usually is tell you the oil type. If anyone know what kind I need please respond. Thank you!

Answers:

NONE OF THOSE, 5W 30 IS WHAT YOU NEED.

Im hearing squeaking noises only in the front of the car whenever I go over bumps. Should I change my shocks?

10w30

where can i get the cheapest bmw service dealer?

If price is not an issue, then go for the 10w40. In most situations, it won't matter which oil you use but, under very stressful situations (as, for example going up the Grapevine), it might make a difference (because the top viscosity is higher).

hey, i gotta 2000 toyota solara and the windshield wiper is broken, it doesnt swipe back, its stuck. any ideas

5W30..... The oil will act as 5 weight in the winter and 30 in the summer, for a small engine you want the 5W30 weight. The lower an oils weight number the thinner the oil will be and the better it will flow, this is important to small high reving engines.

when i turn my car to the left and right! it make a squeak noise! what can it be?

Would not make any difference on that old of a car.
The 1st number is how well the oil flows when cold and the second number is how well it flows when hot.
Lower the number the thinner the oil.

I have a 1961 Caddy. The GEN light just came on. What does that mean?


If the engine is in xcellent shape with no oil leaks then using the previous mentioned 5w30 may result in 1 or 2 miles better MPG.

1986 Chevy Nova?


As a general rule a heavier/higher numbered oil is used to reduce oil burning/usage on a older car.

my muffler bearings are loose and my indicators are out of fluid. What should i do?

In the winter you need to use 5W30 because it's a thinner oil and it won't thicken up in the cold winter months. In the mid to late spring switch to 10W30 because it's a thicker oil and it won't break down in the warm and hot summer months. Always remember to use high mileage oil such as Castrol or Valvoline they are the best especially for a car with over 75,000 miles on it. Remember to change the oil every 3 or 4 months, this keeps your engine healthy and running good. The lower the number the thinner the oil, the higher the number the thicker the oil.

Does it affect the speed of the car if I didnt break in right ?

I have to agree with JACK OF TRADES here. 5w/30 fully synthetic is the oil to go for.

If I install 2.5 inch lowering springs on my scion, can I stay with the stock shocks??

Either is fine, 10w-40 if you have southern-type hot summer. If you are in a northern climate, then 5W-30 will give you much better winter starting. Most cars now recommend 5w-30, most quick-change places have 10w-30 in the machine.

what's the dodgiest repair you ever did to your car?

10w30 for the winter
10w40 for the summer

1983 Chevrolet Record running hot?

In cooler weather it's best to use 10w30. In higher temperature 10w40 would be better. Any multi viscosity oil is good in a range of uses. In extremely cold weather an oil beginning with a 5 can help reduce wear when the engine is first cranked since it circulates easier before it warms up. I Hope this helps.

i have alot of engine noise in my car.how do i get rid of it?

usually car manufactors recommend 5w-40 in the cars built since the early 90's for gas mileage sake.
