    1998 HD Sportster 1200S

    Wow, first time I've checked this forum in d@mn near 7 years and it looks like it's become one big troll nest. To the answer the OP's question, I own a '99 1200S (and a '95 Evo as well) & run Mobil1 15W-50 exclusively.

    Can't find Chevron.....!!

    If there's a Costco in your area, give them a shot. They usually have Chevron Supreme in case quantities for around $10-$11.

    No More Chevron Supreme

    Costco carries Chevron Supreme (and Delo too). If there's one in your neck-of-the-woods, give it a look.

    Which wrench to use?

    This bad boy will handle your every filter removal need : It's actually a ChannelLock PVC pipe wrench, but I've never found anything that does a better job on oil filters.

    chevron oil at walmart

    Amen. All the Costcos I've been in carry it - and usually in 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 weights. Give or take $10/case.

    toyota tundra

    I'll agree with J. I have a '00 Tundra with the I-force V8, and run Mobil1 10W-30 at 5000 mile intervals with Penske (Wix) filters.

    Stocked up on Chevron Supreme 5w-30

    For all you Chevron Supreme fans that live in areas with Kragen/Checker/Shucks Auto Parts Stores, they're currently running a coupon special on the stuff: $.69/qt. with mail-in rebate. Otherwise, Costco always has it in 5W-30, 10W-30, and 10W-40 for about $11.00 a case.

    Spark Plug Extended Change

    Well, the big block Shelby Mustangs (GT-500's) fit this category. And my '81 SB Vette **** near does. What a PITA

    Wix and Napa Gold

    As far as I know, they're identical . . . at least that's what a NAPA counter honk - er, auto parts expert - once told me

    20W-50... whos uses it?

    Yes, I have 3 vehicles that I run 20W-50 in (either currently or in the recent past). In my 2 Harley's I used to use Mobil1 V-Twin until it was pointed out to me a few years ago that M1 15W-50 automotive oil was essentially the same product at half the $$, and I switched to it. I also have an...
