SAE 90 weight oil then add your additive, dont use a synthetic oil if using an additive

I normally put two litre is and then lower the car with filler bolt out and then let any excess drip out and then replace the bolt. SAE 80/90 gear oil and if it has a sure grip you will need a bottle of additive.
