which make would be the best to put in the bongo.
i was looking at gtx magnatec because i was told that there is no different between oil for petrol and diesel engine these days. would this be a good idea or is there a better option to go with?

I use a cheap oil and change often as i'm running 100% veg, although I havn't seen any signs of contamination when changing.

I'm using magnatec designed for diesels, and find I don't need to change every 3k miles. Just aswell as that would mean near 6 changes a year. :(
