actually I have two questions two ask!



1) well im due for an oil change and the weather around here is starting to finally get cooler (richmond va) I was wondering not only what type of oil to use but how many quarts does my car take.





2) Im losing clutch fluid very fast even when the car is at rest! I checked hose from the master cylinder to the clutch release cylinder and found no problems. I looked at my dust boot cover and that is fine as well. so..........

does anyone have any suggestion????



Thank you for your time <_<

1) i like 20-50 but 10-40 works well too



2) have a look under the dash, it could be the master leaking
