Types of Oil to Use in Your Car

Hi, I'm Mark Sullivan for Expert Village and today we're going to teach you how to change the oil in a standard internal combustion automobile engine. The oil that I recommend, well it's a good quality oil. This is a 20w50; meaning the viscosity of the oil or the resistance to flow is 20/50 meaning it is thin when it is cold. But when it gets hot the oil gets thicker. So this is a scientifically designed oil. So don't scrimp on your, don't get cheap oil. Get good oil because you have a $2,000 motor and you don't want to be scrimping; trying to penny pinch on 50 cents. So go ahead and spend the extra money and get some good quality oil.
