Yeah, but we don't have Walmart here

But we have Motonet Oil prices are higher here i think. The cheapest synthetic oil you can buy is 24€ (32$)...

You really don't need synthetic. Just use regular oil but keep doing frequent oil changes.

To clean always use cheap oil. It won't matter how long it last because you are just using it to flush everything out and will be doing another oil change shortly.

Almost like when you flush you brakes. You wouldn't use your high boiling point synthetic to flush as that would be one expensive flush. You would just use your normal brake fluid you can buy from Autozone or anywhere else for like $2-$6.

I didn't want to make a new thread or anything, so I sorta chose this one at random (at least it's an all motor and i GUESS could help an engine last longer ) but does anyone know what size socket and extension(s) you need to remove and put in new spark plugs (NGKs in an SR20DE)? All my tools are buried in storage and I can't remember and have no idea.
