What oil to use in my cosworth 2wd engine H
Hi to all i am new to this forum so bare with me pls. I have a question to ask you all . I own a ford capri that at the moment has a cosworth yb 2wd engine that i am having trouble with . I a always finding oil leaks under it . The grade of fuel i used was Fuchs Titan race pro-s 10w-50. Is this a very thin oil that is causing the oil leak cause before it never leaked .And if so what type of oil should i use .thx

The oil is not causing the leak, 10w50 is rather thick anyway (and just fine). That said a seal is leaking and you should have it fixed. Check the cranskshaft seal at the front.
