I guess i should have reported what i use. I'm such a goof!
I use Mobil Delvac 1300 super 15w-40 in my 2004.5 and i just changed oil in my 92' today and used Mystik jt-8 synthetic blend 15w-50. They were out of 15w-40. I also used a quart of lucas oil stabilizer in the engine oil too. i have always had good luck with lucas.
