I've replaced wheel bearings on the same rear wheel about 5 times. They only

Can I use regular oil or does it have to be symthetic oil? This is for
a Sable.

'91 Mazda 626 2.2 not turbo.
On especially cold mornings, when I first start out, the brake pedal
is hard as a brick and very high, like the vacuum assist isn't
