Stromberg Oil

Hello,

I have a 72' Benz 220/8 with a 175CD Stromberg carburetor, that i'm going to start up, I don't get to start it that much so I was wondering what kind of oil should I put into it? When I bought it the old owner put gas into it saying that it helped it start, but before he bought it it had been sitting for about 10 years. So it hasn't been started all that much. Right now I just have normal 5W 30 motor oil in it, should i put something different into it?


Thank you
