Owners manual info- oilchange

I think the Wix filters are about the best out there. Castrol GTX has been used for about 90% of my oil changes.

I remember when I used to see "Pump Top" advertisments for Mobil 1 at their filling station. They probably still have them, I'm just not aware of seeing this recently.

Anyway, while filling some 50 gallons into a servicetruck I was driving at the time..... I looked real hard at the photo's. It was a comparison campaign showing what the inside of your oil pan looks like with mineral oil/compared to Mobil ONE.

Being the idiot-savant that I am refered to by my closest family, I became aware of minor scratches and flaws in the flanges of the oil pan. Gasket material that hadnt been removed from the filthy, inferior, Dino-Oil soiled belly pan.

Then looking at the sparkeling clean Mobil ONE oil pan with envy. I NEED SOME OF THIS! Thats rocket science at work there!
But Wait..... hey, thats the same gasket stain, scratch, what the???? They just cleaned the same oil pan and put clean oil in it.... Where's the truth in advertising? Those Bastards!

Had they not tried to BS me, I might have tried their product. I hear good things and some other then good things..... I dont think I suggest Mobil ONE gear oil. Somethings not quite right with it... so I hear.

If your ever in a Mobil station, look for that poster, I bet they still use it.

mobil 1 filter is the best out there, if you do constant hwy miles then 4000 is prolly a better number to go buy, use 10w-30 for those kind of temps, 5w-30, and 5w-20 are way to thin for such temps.
