What is the best engine oil to run in a 96 3.3L with just over 200K on it? Right now I am running Castro 5w30, but I wondering if I should run the Castro High Mileage 5W30? The engine doesn't burn any oil to speak of (It does slobber a little bit out of the passenger side valve cover, but it is barely noticeable). Usually when the oil does start to go down it is time for an oil change anyway.

Went to a mall about twenty miles away. Got there and was in the mall about twenty or so minutes and came back out and the engine started right up like always and then stalled and would not start back up, I tried for at least two minutes. Popped the hood to make sure nothing came loose and didn't see anything. Closed the hood got back in and tried again and it started up, but ran rough as heck for about a minute and then suddenly leveled out and ran just like it always does. I made a couple stops back home and she started right back up, so I'm at a loss here on this one. Nothing felt loose when I checked under the hood. The whole distributor is brand new, I doubt it has a thousand miles on it yet, so it shouldn't be an ignition problem. Changed the fuel filter when I first got the vehicle. I'm not sure what else to check.
