Default Just curious

I have a 1995 camry with just over 110k miles. I change the oil every 3k mikes with 10w-30. Would anyone recommend using the high mileage oil, or should I stick with regular oil. Is there really a difference. I do plan on having the vehicle for the long term. Also, I'm about to do a timing belt job on the car. Does anyone know where I can find a timing belt cover gasket? Thanks.

Might try Rockauto on the gasket. It is a rubber seal that if not damaged can be reused.

Rockauto is a good source if you don't mind waiting for shipping. Your local parts store will have something this basic as well. Personally I don't reuse gaskets that are that old. Also, you may as well replace your waterpump on the same job, as you'll be taking it off anyway.

Don't recommend high mileage oil. If you live in a northern climate, you should consider 5w30 oil for colder months.....below 0 degrees F.
