Being from Texas, and more importantly Dallas, could'nt ya just
go dig a hole some place and fetch some oil?
I'm pretty sure it wont have any of that nasty detergent stuff in it.
You might try to find a "break in oil" or racing oil.
I used valvoline racing oil 40 wt to break in my last motor.
It was available at the local auto parts store.
Seemed to me it did not have the detergent as most racing oils dont.
