is it 20w50 for a 1275 carb too? thanksDon't believe what Halfords, Opie and other places say. Most will recommend 15w40 or something like that. Its not suitable for an engine and gearbox that share oil
20w50 all the way

Hence not only a 20w50, but a fully mineral based top quality one such as Penrite, Millers or Valvoline. It needs to be changed very regularly, like not more than 3000 miles between changes.

I use castrol 20 50 and change it every 2000 miles it keeps really oil pressure
That is ideal and it preserves the gearbox as well.
