Dodge TSB...Don't Mix Oils. Don't Use Additives.

[hounddog]

MOA is a Chrysler supplement. The bulletin says" don't use any and its named. Its like STP oil treatment. I could see it really missing with a oils formula.

I can understand Chrysler's ban on installing "miracle-in-a-can" additives...every manufacturer says the same thing...but I can't understand them saying not to mix brands of motor oil. So if I have a crankcase full of PP and need to top off and the only oil available is Quaker State Ultimate Durability, then I'm likely to have a "low-temperature engine failure"????
