use 10w-30 and if you have any smoke then you might want to use a few ounces of engine honey. its a thick oil that helps seal small leaks or scratches. change your oil and filter. check your air filter and tires. also check your coolant levels and top up with pure coolant.

Use synthetic blend oil or high mileage oil. 5-20 or 5-30 or 10-30 are okay.
