get with the times. no one uses peanut oil anymore. its all about the coconut now. its much healthier, lower calories and therefore better for your engine.

or you could just try some 10-40w, your call.

Your choice of fully synthetic or semi. As above, 10w-40 will be fine. I run fully synthetic 10w-40 in mine. 

 

How many Ks has the engine done?

Isnt peanut oil exclusive for the peanut gallery, or is that where it is made?

What, peanut gallery?

Urban dictionary says-

peanut gallery;

a group of (sometimes stupid) people that make comments on something they are watching or listening to; spectators with a verbal opinion

"we will not tolerate comments from the peanut gallery," said the announcer.

You could use whats been suggested above or you could go with some Penrite 10TENTHS 10W40 Racing Oil like I have, I spoke directly to the rep at my work and he said that it is a Zinc based oil and therefore means it is a 100% shear free guaranteed oil, meaning that no matter how hard you push your engine or drive it, it will not wear your engine out, now this is backed up by a guarantee so however skeptical I was at first for them to guarantee it rather than just speculate I'm rather shocked. I've only had it in the car for about a week and I've already doubled my fuel economy with an average of 600km per tank over my measly 280-315km when I was using Castrol Magnatec semi-synthetic 10W40. I've also noticed I have a much smoother feeling and sounding drive with less engine noise. I know its expensive at $70 a bottle but I'd say its worth it in the long run for sure.

lets squash Jack to see if oil comes out...could confirm then the theory of peanut being extracted from the peanut gallery.
