mobile 1 oil... is it that bad?

samb03 · 10-02-2011, 04:38 PM

I bring my own oil and filter and have an oil change shop drain/fill mine. I use what ever quality filter I can find Mobil or K&N usually. I have been running nothing but Amsoil and it doesn't burn an oil with nearly 9K miles.

I can't imagine that Mobil 1 would hurt anything. I worked with a master mechanic in FT Worth that used would save the Mobil 1 from one particular custumer. He was an retired Navy Admiral that babied his 350 and changed it every 2500 or earlier. The tech would run it in his souped up GTP Grand Prix. Then save it run in his wife's CTS. for 3K each. He never had a problem. The first time it was drained it still looked like new. The second time it was still golden.
