I just recently received a 6 pack of this oil from a church member wanting to donate it to our cause. She knows I am no longer doing this charity work and didn't just want to throw it away.
I know it's basically a good oil for European engines, but, what about US engines? I was thinking about mixing it some kind of way with some 5W30 oil. I still have a few OCI's promised to some elderly folks, so, what ya think?

If your vehicle does not require SN or GF-4 or GF-5 or a manufacturer specific spec, go for it.

This oil is not for my use. It was given to me for the charity work I used to do. I still have 6-7 OCI's left of the charity work I did. And, I made these people a promise and I will follow through. Pressure or no pressure from the local indy's will stop me.

I know one is owned by a guy named Joe. In huge black spray painted letters on his sliding garage door it reads,"CALL JOE!" The other one is called "ROCKY'S."

Could that be a zoning violation, if you get my drift?

I would think one quart of 15W50 to two quarts 5W20 would make a solid 30 weight. Maybe toward the heavier end. Got any MC floating around?

What do they do that makes them questionable shops?

YUP, the one called JOE'S is probably only there "maybe" 2 days a week, AT THE MOST! I don't know WHAT makes him "QUESTIONABLE" but I know he does rip off the people. He's also a State Certified Inspection station.
The other shop, they just recently opened, about 3-4 months ago. The owners' grandmother lives in my complex. I am "GUESSING" that he is the one that called SS on me. We had even did an OCI on her 06 Mercury Sable.
I know he claims to be an a/c and emissions expert. Well, that's what it reads on his garage door. He operates out of his house.
Other than what the locals say about their dishonest ways, having to bring their vehicles back multiple times, and over charging them, I don't know anything else that makes them "QUESTIONABLE" shops.

would make a great choice for air cooled Harley-Davidson motorcycles...something to consider if you need to pass the oil onto somebody else if yer 'anklebiter' situation doesn't get resolved

KM, that's a GREAT idea! If we don't use it to cut down and increase the quantity of oil I can find someone that rides a bike and see if they might want it. Right now, I am just looking over my shoulder ALL the time for the SS!
