Type oil for 2005 Chevy Pu?

The recommended oil type for a 2005 Chevy pickup truck depends heavily on the engine. Chevrolet used several different engines in their trucks that year. To determine the correct oil type, you must check your owner's manual.

The manual will specify:

* Oil Viscosity: This is typically expressed as a number like 5W-30, 10W-30, or 5W-40. The correct viscosity is crucial for proper lubrication and engine performance at different temperatures.

* Oil Type: This might specify conventional, synthetic blend, or fully synthetic oil. Again, your owner's manual is the definitive source.

Without knowing the engine size and type, I cannot give you the correct oil. Looking up the engine code (often found on a sticker under the hood or in the engine bay) and referencing the owner's manual is the only reliable way to ensure you use the appropriate oil.
