![Question](https://www.rx8club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Which oil do you guys put in your 8? and what would you recommend me to add for my 8. I Live in Texas. And its very hot down here most of the time. Are there any recommendations on what oil I must use overall or which oil I should use depending on the weather. (Hot or cold - summer/winter) Rotary4LiFe!

I use conventional 5w20 or 5w30. Personally, if you're going to change oil every 3000 miles (which I think the majority here do) I see no point in synthetic.
Prepare for some flames for asking the #1 most commonly asked and answered unanswerable question. I'll be burnt beside you for angering the synthetic fans.![Wink](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Oh - look for the thread that has the oil chart from the Australian RX-8 manual. It shows a very sensible range of choices of oil for various temperature ranges.

I premix my oil 3:1 with 5w30 and KY Jelly. The extra lubrication from the KY actually allows the rotors to spin at a faster rate. I can do 0-60mph in 9.2 seconds. If no KY availabe(to busy using for personal use) then use snake oil and cool aid. Second best IMO.
