normal fossil oils - Quacker State 10W30, typically. When you change the oil for the first time, run it for a few hundred miles and change it again.
Then run it for a few weeks to a month and change it again.
It gets a lot of the collected crud out of the transmission.
Then change it every other engine oil change.
I'm planning on changing to a heavy-weight synthetic to see how well that works. I'm not so concerned with smooth shifting (SAABs are notchy, anyway) as I am with longevity.
Darn, teenagers to feed!!! I remember when I could eat like them and still loose weight.
