You didn't say what weight oil you are using. An engine with that many miles (read 'loose') doesn't benefit from multi-weight oil, since there is enough clearance to get 30w or 40w circulating quickly. Go with a single-weight oil. Unless you are in the frozen North, there's no time you need 10w or 20w in an engine with that many miles.

Make sure your engine is breathing well, including exhaust.
