What Oil Are You?

[84zmyfavorite]

Being a gear head, always thinking about engines, transmissions, transfer cases, Diffs, starters, alternators, injectors, etc, etc and seeing them work, or Not work in my head a good deal of the time, I sometimes relate to them. I used to relate to the Toyota 20R, dependable, tough, good power and torque for its size, but I have also related to engine oils over the years. I used to be like a ND30, like the ACCEL ND30 i use in a few of my vehicles,...not good in the cold, not good in the heat, unrefined and just plain unacceptable for many applications. But over the past few years, Life has changed myself into a more tolerable, flexable, adaptable person. Like a Synthetic. Currently Im relating Alot to Castrol EDGE 5w30, a little bit to the 10w30, what Oil do You relate to?

PYB:No frills,the go-to oil,always been around,and can count on it when times get tough.Often seen in discount stores too....lol

 

[Quattro Pete]

Probably Mobil 1 0w-40 for me - works in all temperature extremes, and is leaning toward German engineering.

 

[Pajamarama]

Valvoline NextGen

Well intentioned but ultimately not very successful.

 

[Chris142]

I've always been a good multi viscosity such as havoline or qs. Not as well known as valvoline or castrol but just as good.

I'm $1 per qt kinda guy.

 

[JerryBob]

Dirty, used up, and drained.

 

[MuzzleFlash40]

MY favorite oils have changed over the years. This time I'm on Mobil oils, but Castrol has been and probably will be my go to oil brand.

Whats a good oil on sale kind of guy. I have about 25 quarts of penn platinum, 15 quarts of Pennzoil Ultra. 35 quarts of nextgen hm. some napa/Quaker State Ultimate Durability etc. Just ordered 30 quarts of the castrol deal.

 

[Gillsy]

2015 Forester Quaker State Ultimate Durability, 2012 Mazda 3 PP, 2004 Impala Pennzoil blend. I like Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0w20 as well. Usually brand loyal, but sometimes try a few different flavors when I get a new vehicle.

I'm old-fashioned and nostalgic for the 1970's...I'm definetly a quart of 10W-40 Brad-Penn oil.

 

[Michael_P]

What ever has the best sales pitch at the time. Words and phrases like; resistant to thermal breakdown, lubricity, unsurpassed (protection), increases engine life and improves MPG by 90% have my attention.

 

[dlundblad]

A can of genuine Lawn Boy 2 stroke oil

 

[GenesisGuy70]

Amsoil Signature Series.

Always striving to be the best.

 

[Tmiller3063]

Pennzoil conventional. Simple and effective, like the Toyota 22R engines!
