Hi guys I just got a nos Mep-026A and was wondering what oil do you guys use in yours for best performance. The tm calls for 30wt or 15-40. I don't want to blow her up on first try.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I second this. I feel the brand is less important. I try to select a brand name that is on sale. I like Rotella, but I also use Mobil Delvac (another very good oil!), Pennzoil, Valvoline, Quaker State, and others. I often get my oil from NAPA and the 5 gallon pails they sell are sold with a NAPA label, but it is made by Valvoline (just ask them if you doubt this). Good stuff. As I said, select a good brand name oil and change your oil often. If anything, I believe more in selecting good brand name filters. I have used FRAM without any problems, but I prefer to use WIX (usually NAPA or Carquest brand).Every type of oil listed in the previous posts is excellent oil. I don't think the particular brand is nearly as important as making sure it is good oil with the correct specs for the application. Good oil doesn't necessarily mean a higher price either.
