oil


Its manufactured by Mobil. If you visit the Mobil website,
http://www.mobil1.com & study the Data Sheets it will answer most of your queries.A recent thread here revealed it to be very popular among the many posts. Basically its a quality oil.

Supposed to be basically Mobil 1 with double the soot suspension capacity. Touted as being good to 60,000 miles when supported by oil filter changes and oil analysis (but I don't think I would try that). Currently sold only in 5w40. Retail cost just shy of $30 per gallon. I am hesitant to try it in my diesels, mainly for fear of leaks, but I just switched to it in my Toyota, which had been raised on Mobil 1.
