Re: what weight oil?

5w winter, 10w summer. All regular penzoil. I put mileage on the car like there's no tomorrow, sythetic would be a waste of cash for me since I change the oil once a month at the longest. More important than oil though is the quality of the filter in some cases. Try to only use mitsu 1f filter, or a 1g PURE1. A local club member worked for a place that tested them all and these were the results. Fram was the worst. Just a friendly bit of advice.

Re: what weight oil?

On a NT 1g, I believe they are the same part. On 2g, I dont know what chrysler used. At any rate, your best bet will be the correct mitsu part for your car, or the corresponding PURE1.
