740 valve noise/piston slap 700


Hi Chris and Alex,

Thanks for the responses. I'll get some lighter oil for sure. I guess I'm used to using the 20W-50 in my MGBs. Several MG enthusiasts have told me to use that weight, but the Volvo's engine is quite different. What about getting a part synthetic oil like the kind that Valvoline makes?

Cheers,
Dave
