Wolfs Head synthetic?

[wemay]

Curious...
Just saw this oil at a Marathon gas station. The synthetic is being sold for $2.99/qt. I've never seen it before but the MB-229 approval must indicate a decent lube.

I'd be very careful about gas station oils.

Most end up on PQIA advisories and watch lists.

I checked, it isnt on the advisories watch list, but thanks for the heads-up.

Wolf's Head isn't a gas station oil.

Wolf's head is well respected by many here. Plenty have used their synthetic ATF with no issues also.

You can see on the data sheet, One of them is Dexos 1

Wolfs Head is made by Amalie Oil Co out of Tampa Florida.Its at least as good as the namesake Amalie labeled oils.

Also used to be owned by Pennzoil before they sold to Amelia Oil in 2009.

Great info, thank you all. Sounds like a good history read-up.

At that price, I'd be all over that.

FTI: Any order over $39 shipped free from the amaliestore.com. I've bought cases of oil and their "super universal synthetic transmission fluid" from them. Never a problem. Always good prices. Kira

WH used to be really good oil but it is now owned by Amalie and is basically just relabeled. I wouldn't buy it myself but it is an "ok" oil.
