Mobil 1
I own a company that sells oil purifiers for large machinery. I often get a chance to work with the oil companies, and the suppliers of additives to those companies. I was meeting with an oil engineer from a large additive manufacturer and I had a chance to ask him what he recommended for use in a car. He said Mobil 1. I then asked what he thought of the other synthetic oils. He replied, I have been designing oil for over 20 years. I uses Mobil 1 in my car. You should be using it!
I bought a Miata in 1999 with 4000 miles on it. When I stopped at a red light, the oil pressure fell off, like in most cars. I did the first oil change on that car and the oil pressure never fell off again. I sold it this year, when I bought my Vette, the oil pressure was the same as new, and it did not drop when I stopped. I am a believer in Mobil 1!
