G'day David,
I've found Pennzoil 10/30 turbo works well if you give it heaps and go on short rides. For more long distance work I would use the 20/50 GT performance. I've found both these seem to work better than the synthetics not only in engine life but in clutch operation.
As for a engine flush, warm your motor up and drop the oil and filter. Refill as specified and run for at least 100 KM. Then do the same again. You should then change your oil and filter at 5000 K intervils. My feelings are to change the filter every time you change the oil. Why contaminate new
