I see several options:

use synthetic 10w40 left over from car oil change.

Any advice?


First, use the cleaner to wash the engine, if it will stay running.
Let it get up to operating temperature, then shut it down and dry
entire engine with rags. Wait a few days and carefully look for leak.

Why do you use old oil? If it's too dirty for your car, it's
certainly no good for your B/S engine.
