I'm getting closer to starting up my rebuilt 292 and have been reading up on the proper oil to use (maybe reading too much). I came across this article which goes into it in detail so great my head is spinning.  I know this is a subject that has been talked to death, but what kind of oil do you use and what do you think of the article's recomendations?
