Hey guys,
Wondering what type/brand of engine oil to use? I have searched around for topics mentioning about 5W/30 or 10W/30...Density..Synthetic..
Donno what they mean!!!..
I am having tappets noise during cold startup..Have to top up my oil..or probably flush the engine oil(if it is easy to do so) to check if the tappets become quieter...
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

FYI
I have checked this DIY(GR TAPPETS)...this would be stage two..if the oil change does not do the trick..

Changing oil may help slighty but will not get rid of the noise completely, you will need to adjust tappets
