Looks great!

Is this the same stuff as Citgo branded oil sold at Citgo gas stations?Assuming it's SL rated.

I'll look forward to seeing the used oil analysis on this.

My used oil analysis on Citgo Supergard had Magnesium at 300+ and Calcium near 2800 so that was a noticeable difference to me.

Mystik is kind of an unusual motor oil, at least where I live. I know of exactly two places where it can be bought (in a city with over 100,000 population). One is a store that sells to farm and ranch people. Mystik is supposed to be popular in some parts of Oklahoma.

I know a man who has been a mechanic for over fifty years and he will not put any oil but Mystik in a car unless a customer brings in his own oil. I know another man who used to work as a professional mechanic and he also raced cars. He used Mystik in his race cars and in his street vehicles. My Dad was a long time mechanic and he told me that Mystik was a good motor oil. A guy at a dealership that uses Valvoline motor oil told me that a lot of people bring in Mystik oil to be put in their cars and trucks. But I personally used Mystik only a couple of times.

It will be interesting to see the used oil analysis on this 5w30 Mystik motor oil. I have always wondered if it was really as good as some people have told me.
