So far I have a no and a yes. Tomorrow I will call Mobil, talk to Matt, if he is still there, and see what they say. I will report what they say.

I have 2 copies of the Mobil 1 Engine Oil Table that shows phosphorus/zinc levels for their synthetic oils. The first, dated 5/27/10, is when most of their oils were rated GF-4 SM. These oils, 0W-20 AFE, 0W-30 AFE, 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-20 EP, and 5W-30 EP are all listed as 800 phos/900 zinc. Their...

My 2003 3.3l Chrysler used a Mopar xxxx oil filter and I always used a larger filter like the Pure PL 14670. I just got a used 2008 3.3l Dodge and it calls for a Mopar 4105409, which is what they used to use on the 4cyl engines. The Pure would be PL 10241. What can I use in place of the PL 10241...

I still use and love GC in my 2003 Chrysler Voyager - 3.3L engine - 260000 + miles. I use it year round in Minnesota. I just bought 20 more qts. at Pepboys on sale for $4.86/qt. If and when I can't ever find it, I'll use Mobil 1 0-40.

Hard to argue with success. However, if you need to change due to availability, either of the alternatives being discussed should provide similar performance. I'm impressed as I recently gave up on my 2000 3.3L with 167,000 mainly due to incessant oil leaks. And my vehicle was always kept in a...

Originally Posted By: ZeeOSix Maybe I should rephrase: "People who have feel the need to correct other peoples' spelling on a chat board have some kind of issue." Who cares if someone spells a word wrong once and awhile, or can't seem to write as well as someone thinks they should? As long as...
