However, in general terms, for that era:
* If it's a gasoline engine: It likely used conventional 30-weight oil or a multi-grade oil like 10W-30 or 20W-40. Check your owner's manual for the specific recommendation.
* If it's a diesel engine: The requirements would be different. Again, the owner's manual is crucial, but it likely would have needed a heavier-weight diesel oil.
Finding the correct oil:
1. Locate your owner's manual: This is the best source of information.
2. Check the engine block: The engine type is usually cast into the block itself. This will help you search online for the appropriate oil type.
3. Look for an oil fill cap: Sometimes the recommended oil type is printed on the oil fill cap.
Without knowing the engine size and type, giving a precise oil recommendation is impossible. Using the wrong oil can damage your engine.
