Citgo Supergard 5w-30 (older non-semisyn)
3600 miles on oil
7 months in crankcase
Had the harmonic balancer separate in January and thought I would check to make sure the bearings are ok. I also am curious how the citgo does. It is a cheap oil and I don't see many analysis of it on this site. Looks pretty good to me for the $. I got this stuff on sale 2 years ago for $0.70/qt. I am out and onto the semi syn now - $2.59/qt.
