    Besco oil is 10-w30. That is the only recommended oil for isuzus (according to the casa) There are some 10-w30 oils in True Value

    look under the hood... i think there should be a sign that says to only use a 30 wt oil on the isuzu engine.

    based sa manual 15w40 ang recommended oil ng isuzu para sa ganyang engine. hindi ko lang sure kung ano magiging effect kapag below the required oil viscocity (tama po ba?) ang ginamit.

    based on manual, casa's recommendation starts at sae 40 mono mineral though 15-40 multigrade is much better because of it's versatility on cold starts. IMO just stick to mineral based multigrades since 4ja-1 is not that complex than newer and modern turbo intercooler crdi's.

    usually sa mga isuzu ... 10w-30, 10w-40 and 5w-40 4ja1 ... i pressume na highlander yung car mo or crosswind .....

    if your looking for motor about kaya na maganda try 76 lubricants 10w -30 niya is 170/liter ... castrol is about 270/liter magnatec .... if synthetic naman hanap mo royal purple and 76 is not a bad choice ... 5w- 40 yun pure synthetic
