Oil & Fuel What oil do I use.

I am trying to change the oil in my G5200 and am faced with not being able to find 10w-30 oil in CC (obsolete), CF or CI-4. I know the stuff is made but can not find. All I can find is 15w-40 Rotilla, synthetic Rotilla in 5W-40, or an off brand synthetic in 5W-30. What should I do?

The current API spec is CJ and that will work. Stick with Rotella 15w-40 or Delo 15w-40. You can still find some CI oils but they are being replaced by the CJs.

Welcome to TBN. You will come to see that this site contains a vast amount of info. TBN and all the people here has helped numerous times. I have an older L175 that calls for 10w-30 also. I've been using Rotella 15w-40 for the past 3 years without any problems.
