a couple of noob question. whats the "best" mineral oil? castrol gtx? and are the suspension/ body bushings and ball joints on these cars greasable? thanks
I have used Valvoline for the past 20 years with no known problems. Currently, I have tried Motorcraft blend in my stuff, especially where a 5w30 is called for.
The original tie rod ends and ball joints are usually not greasable. Most of the replacements are.
I've also been using Valvoline for a number of years with excellent results. I can also attest to the quality of the Motorcraft blends especially the 5w30. The motor in my Mustang was spotless inside other than typical oil varnish when I pulled it apart at 168,000 mi. It had been fed a steady diet of Motorcraft 5w30. If that damned rubber pan gasket hadn't deteriorated and plugged the oil pickup I'd never have had to pull it apart.
