Long term Engine Wear Test

777funk,

Mobil took two brand new BMW's (Back in the 1980's) one on "Dino",one on
Mobil 1... 'Ran them 200,000 miles...with factory oil change intervals.At the
end of the test, both engines were dis-assembled.The Mobil 1 engine showed
virtually No Wear.The pictures are still hanging around somewhere on the web.

Of course since E/M is screwing around and retrograding back to cheaper base
stocks,the only things running on it around here are the lawnmower and the test ford.
