[Healeys] Castrol Classic Oil

[philritten at aol.com]

I was told to get Castrol GTX SAE 20W-50 for my Healey which says "API Service SM,SL,SJ,SH" on that back (not sure what that means).?I?believe I was told it?is a special oil for older engines.?I got it at Pep Boys.

Thanks,
Phil

Yes. As I said, but perhaps not to clearly, a couple of days ago,  Tractor 
Supply Co. has API-SL oil availble. It is conventional (has to be to have 
the API spec) motor oil. Available in single and multi grade formulations. 
Additionally, they have non-detergent oil available for the tranny,
