Default Recommended oil for '01 Proton Satria 1.3L

Hey fella's, need some help finding which decent oil to put into my partners Proton Satria. I've been meaning to give it a good service for ages and now the time has finally come to do it for real. But I have no idea what oil this thing takes... Can anyone recommend what I put into it? It's a 2001 Proton Satria 1.3L with 120,000k's on the clock.

Any help would be great!
Cheers, Wil.

Proton Satria is just a slightly changed Mitsu something isn't it?

Have a look at the oil cap, it'll tell you what spec oil to use.

Not quite Russ. It WAS a Lancer/Mirage, but if it is a new model, that's all Proton.
