Mobil Super 1000 Dino - only in Canada? Pity

[zoomie]

Saw this stuff on the shelf at krapy tire so checked Mobil website to find out more, looks good through layman's eyes at least.

Mobil Super 1000 and 2000

Hi,
zoomie - I Posted on here a long time ago that Mobil is rebranding its WW range - progressively

1000 - Base consumer product with OEM Approvals
2000 - Semi Synthetic (in our language)
3000 - Fully synthetic with many EOM Approvals (2nd string to M1)
4000 -
5000 - Some versions have an ester content Patent

I have been using 2000 10W-40 for some time now in a number of engines

i bought 3 5 litre jugs at autobarn, on special a few months ago for $10 each

i got the 20w50 for my harley, ended up using it in my VY SS ute coz it met GM specs (and i needed to flush the engine)

OUR general sez (in the handbook) that we can use 20w50 in 5.7 chev engines ... haha

Here in Canada the super 1000 is Esso Extra in a Mobil bottle.

Good post Doug. Is there 5000 around town ? For the previous oils except the 3000, Repco bottled oils are a good potion at 10% less with the same stuff in it as the 1000 and 2000 semi.
