Our local foreign car parts store sells Amsoil synthetic oil ($6.90 /qt). Any experience with this? Is it better, worse or the same as Mobil 1?
Thanks for the advice.

yep, thats the problem. i assume the amsoil would do(no real experiance) but why when you can get mobil 1 15/50 almost anywhere? you should see some results rather quickly. but usually will take another oil change to get you cleared up. the mention of checking the rockers for loose bolts is a good one but usually the noise is consistantin that case.
