i'm planning to change black oil for my wira engine. Wat brand do u recommend? Any brand which is cheap or expensive also can, just as long as it's good for my engine. I heard from fren that Shell Helix is nice. He also said that go for Shell V-Power is good for your engine is this correct?

But i have tried full-synetic on my wira few years back and the problem arised is the "Minyak Hitam" just somehow "evaporated" and hilang. . . One day when checking the oil level after long distance travelling few hours before, i found that the oil level is close to nil, quickly added oil, imagine the concequences !
