Scroll down to about 1/4 page. This guy swears by Mobil1 and do u believe what he says about Amsoil? And i thought Royal Purple has moly in it thats bad for valves?

?

Mobil 1 is good, Amsoil is good, Royal Purple is good, Castrol is good......any synthetic from a well known company is going to be just fine. I personally use Mobil 1 10W30 in mine.

Wow, too much for my lazy ass to read right now. lol

But yeah, I agree with maverick about top brand Synthetics all being good.

Yea, what about the moly in RP??? ive always wondered about that...

 

[maverick0716]

If the "moly" was bad for the engine, it wouldn't be in it.

 

[mfewtrail]

'Moly" is used in a lot of common engine lubricants(check out a package of engine assembly lube or some lube that comes with a new camshaft.....).

what does moly do 4 an engine?

If it really worries you, look at the MSDS for the oil, call their tech folks, talk to folks on oil boards or just use another product. Just MHO.

Good luck.

thanks, i was just wondering, im gonna run amsoil and be done and have the best protection possible

I know it bothers you and you keep saying 'thanks' (which for some reason makes me think you are irritated with my replies. But I keep replying since I keep up with oil info a little).
I just doubt that you will find the specialized/niche information you desire on this board (unless there are oil reps/engineers reading in here). And though I keep up on this stuff a little, I dont have answers to your questions - I would have to research them myself.

And since I appreciate your concerns, I was trying to think of/suggest places I would go/things I would do, to find more objective information. It was not a blow-off at all. I was just trying to think of avenues you can pursue because I know you want to know for sure.

ive been using mobil 1 for a few years and have never had any problems

 

[QDRHRSE]

I only use Mobile1 in my wifes BMW and change it every 6-7k. Never a problem, always drains out still looking like oil. I use Motorcraft sythetic Blend in all of my Mustangs because I change the oil a lot. I don't think I even go 3k miles between changes. The Motorcraft oil, after 3000 miles, drains out looking the same as when I put it in- it never breaks down or anything. Pure synthetics are really only needed if you plan to beat on your car for a long time between oil changes. Most guys that I know waste money using full synthetic. Mustangs actually are really low revving so full synth is kind of a waste unless you have blower to oil too......please don't hate my opinion as I'm sure most everybody will. I drive over 60k a year so I change a lot of oil.
