what is the best engine oil to use on a 4-banger ranger?

 

please use the search feature......this topic comes up 2-4 times a week...

 

I would say
-royal purple
-mobile 1
-valvoline

 

amsoil hands down... mobil 1 is another good choice

 

amsoil is great

 

I use regular havoline oil.....I assume thats what the previous owner had put in it too (regular oil)......its got 145k miles on it, and still has plenty of power (for a 4cyl) and doesn't appear to use any oil.

 

Another vote for Amsoil.

 

You'll get as many answers as you get responses, I use Mobil 1. Spend some time at Bobistheoilguy, and you will find more than enough information to choose.

this is what i use, and i change my oil every 3-5k.

ill let the pictures do the talking.

 

Use any oil that is API certified, and the correct viscosity (5W30, or 5W20).
Stay away from Amsoil!! It's way over priced, and all but 2 of their oil products ARE NOT API certified!!! The reason it's over priced is because Amsoil is a MLM (Multi Level Marketing) company......
