Yoou could try castor oil. The name Castrol comes from "castor + oil"

Most people use engine oil though, Mobil 1 motorsport or Castrol RS (but not the thin one)

We do put oil in our cars, but after the question has been asked, and answered about 23,865,289 times, people get fed up answering, especially when the search function does work now.
Motul 300v 15/50
Mobil 1 Motorsport 15/50
Castrol RS 10/60

Some people do use Silkolene, but it wouldnt be one of my choices.

Silkolene Pro S 10w-60 for me too, it's a proper synthetic oil, i.e. hasn't come out of a hole in the ground like a lot of so called synthetic oils (cough -mobil one- cough).
