i run a 94 buick v6 engine on mobil 1…its done 589 ooo kms doesnt use oil…i only change filter …same oil for 400,000 kms!!!Ihave never lifted heads or done any work on it once it warms up its a beauty….
All Synthetic Oil is better, some better than others I would think.
I seem to recall a test done in the early 90s by Consumer Reports using a text fleet in NY city. They tested 10w30 oils, and one with Mobil one. I think the motor was a Chevy V6. Different Motor design then this one here, and not as hot. Anyone see that one?

Recently pulled a TBI intake from a Chevrolet 4.3L – there is no sludge underneath the intake and the lifter valley; the vehicle which is my daily driver (92 S10 Blazer 4DR) has over 230,000 miles (been using Mobil 1 since 85,000 miles)…
Heat is not nearly as hard on an oil, or as trying on an engine, as is cold weather operation. Continuous use is, on a per mile basis, much easier on both than the use that most people put their cars to. Idling is not hard on the engine or the oil. It is hard on them on a *per mile* basis, only because they are traveling 0 miles per engine revolution. Continuous, 24 hour operation is *ideal* for engine life, when measured in miles rather than years; Not some grueling torture test. Continued…
