What type of motor oil for a 1999 dodge caravan sport?

The recommended motor oil for a 1999 Dodge Caravan Sport depends on the engine it has. The Caravan came with several different engines that year. To determine the correct oil, you need to find the engine code, usually located on a sticker under the hood or in the owner's manual.

Once you know the engine (e.g., 3.0L V6, 3.8L V6), consult your owner's manual for the *exact* specifications. The manual will specify the recommended viscosity (e.g., 5W-30, 10W-30) and the type of oil (conventional, synthetic blend, or full synthetic).

However, as a general guideline for 1999 Dodge Caravans, 5W-30 is a common and often recommended viscosity. But again, always check your owner's manual for the definitive answer. Using the wrong oil can damage your engine.
