• Morris - Minor 1960 1100cc - What Oil should I use? 22 Jan 2013 (Forum)
  I recently purchased a Morris Minor as a 'fun' car. It's a 1098cc engine of, I think 1960 vintage. Which oil should i use in the engine? Presumably the engine is using 'old' technology, so the latest fully synthetic oils would be inappropriate? Would a straight 20-50 oil be best? Are there any
