Royal Purple-->Mobil 1
 
If I were to go from Royal Purple to Mobil 1 would I need to do engine flush?

SoCal 370Z 03-03-2010 04:31 PM

No, you'll never get all the old oil out on the first drain. After your next oil change most of the remaining Mobil1 will be diluted to the point it is gone.

No...just a wallet flush!

No...

TheSnakeJake 03-03-2010 04:55 PM

why would you choose mobil1? it is probably the worst of the synthetics...

Go with Pennzoil Ultra…..it’s the full synthetic motor oil that Ferrari recommends!

Did you know that drinking urine can prevent cancer?

Yep, I read it on the internet. Must be true.

That's a very biased report. Notice none of the oil weights are the same?

It's also quite old.

It's also a test that proves nothing for an engine (it's a test used for gear oils!)....and happens to be the same one that AMSoil promotes as the Word of God when it comes to oil.

WICKED_GRIN 03-04-2010 08:16 AM

oh goodness here we go again, another cool oil thread, come on guys do your search's, and that is one of the dumbest statments ive everseen.

Zsteve 03-04-2010 09:17 AM

Like stated earlier as long as they meet or exceed API standards then they will not hurt the car.

TheSnakeJake 03-04-2010 09:27 AM

have you guys ever smelled mobil1 compared to amsoil? you can tell it is crap just by the look/smell...

of course it won't hurt your car. it's just not the best option by far...

That's certainly a valid test. It's rare we get two oil experts in the SAME thread....:bowrofl:

m4a1mustang 03-04-2010 11:12 AM

Unicorn blood works the best. Too bad its so expensive. Damn global warming melting the unicorn's natural habitat. I need to call Tom Cruise and have him go all Legend on those Chinese factories.

mobil1 smells liked dino oil.

make fun of me all you want, i'm not putting that junk in my engine...

Chupacabra 03-04-2010 11:17 AM

since we are getting all scientific here...

Mobil 1 is amber

Royal Purple is purple.



and since purple is closer to the infrared side of the light spectrum its light transmittance is worse than that of the mobile 1...

so mobile 1 is better.

late to the party.. but thats pretty much the most useless test I've ever seen. They'd have been better off comparing mobil 1 to anal eze.
