There is an auto-parts store and engine shop close to me (Benson Auto Parts) that I swear is like a 'museum' of strange and rarely-seen oils.
I was in there on Friday looking for some LubeGuard Red (they have it!), and I checked out the oil section...Whoa, talk about selection you don't find elsewhere...
4 quarts of API-SJ(!) Pennzoil 'semi-synthetic' oil, that I remember selling at WM when I worked at one in the 1990's;
2 quarts of ND 20W-20 oil;
1 quart of QS 'Enhanced Durability' 'Winter blend' 5W-30 - I thought QS had stopped making this oil, but no, this was brand-new SN stuff!
About 10 quarts of QS 'Enhanced Durability' 15W-40 HDEO - seriously, who new QS made a semi-syn 15W-40???
A TON of GM EOS supplement;
A 5-litre jug of Quartz 9000 0W-30 full-syn oil;
Lots of Pennzoil Gold syn-blend, all grades, all API SN stuff.
I could go on, but you get the picture. most stores here only stock what sells, but where does all the 'odd ball' stuff go?
I know this doesn't 'matter' (unless you live near me), but it was neat to see a lot of 'oddball' oils that you hear about, but never run across.....
Cheers!
Local store is like an oil 'museum'.....

Wow, Total Quartz 9000 0w30? Surprised to see that at a B&M location.
Buy it all up and party like its 1989.
Any QS in round metal cans?
Live on border in Buffalo, NY. Googled Benson and many locations in Canada. If I ever get my border documents I might do a store walk thru.
Where is this located?
