    SAE 30 or 10W-30 is what the manual specifies for above 90F

    We don’t get quite as hot here in TN but I’ve used Shell Rotella T1 straight 30w in my 3A, M38 and now my CJ5. Its great for older style motors and was recommended to me by John at Midwest Military years ago. It’s readily available at most auto parts stores, Walmart and other places.
