Hey guys... what's the best oil?

m4a1mustang · 05-16-2010, 01:25 PM

What's up Z drivers? I was about to put some Mobil 1 in my car today when I saw a warning label, so I didn't really know if this is what I should use. I figure u guys can let me know what oil is best for the Z.

Thanks!

I just buy the recycled oil from a gas station next to my office.

I don't have a gas station next to my office, but I do have one across the street from it. Do you think that oil would be just as good or does it need to be next door?

I feel like that would break down under extreme temperatures.

Exactly the opposite, it thrives under hot temps. You don't even need an oil cooler if you use that.

Well, my Z is a rather classy girl, and it says on the box that that is for nasty girls. My guess is it would be F-L-A-W-L-E-S-S on a 2004.5, but not on a 370.

Dreamer, what do you think about use oil from across the street from my work?

Mmmm, next door is better, and the more run down is key.

Okay, okay, a bit unconventional, but the oil off the top of pizzas is proven at high temps (ya know, because it's baked in an oven), and it's free if you eat a lot of pizza. Just drip it into a funnel and save until you have enough.
