: What oil should be used in a 53 NAA. I am sure that it originally used non-detergent, but the person I bought it from had used detergent oil the last 10 years. The engine has never been overhauled to my knowledge. Thanks in advance for any help. Mike Mike: I sound like a broken record on this one, buy the best "premium detergent" oil you can find, diesel service, turbo approved. I'm sure some will panic at the thought, why they cling to these "old wives tales" I will never understand.
I have the original jubilee book in front of me and it says to use the best grades available made by a reputable supplier. They list some "M" codes which are no longer used but would have been the premium oils of the time. Todays detergent oils will not harm any engine. They recommend changing the filter every other oil change but I think that is false economy, filters are cheap.
Good luck. :-)
