Post your latest oil change

1998 F150 V6 - Seemed like only yesterday (March 16th) when I hit 280,000 miles.

Out:
Quaker State Ultimate Durability 5W30 with Purolator Gold Filter - I actually ran this a few minutes short of 10,000 with only one quart makeup oil required.


In:
Valvoline Synpower 5W20 with Wix Filter - I had this laying around. Actual change mileage was 289,614 and I anticipate running this until 300,000 before I change it again.

1 week and a half ago. Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w40 with Wix filters in my '04 cavalier. noticed a little oil consumption every 3000-4000 miles thought id give it a try. I Have ran 5w30, 10w30, SAE30 oils in Mobil 1 5w30 10-30, Mobil 1-HM 5-30 10-30, Royal Purple 5-30,10-30 Kendall 30WT, Royal Purple SAE30, Pennzoil Platnium 5-30 and 10-30, Rotella T6 10-30, now Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w40.

Ive read that these ecotecs are oil burners so hopefully the Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck does the trick if not Amsoil will be the next step.

For some reason I believe oil is splashing under the pistons and burning off so if the Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck is good enough to run through a nice hot turbo I hope it would with stand the heat from under the pistons.
