but Mobil 1 not listed in the test.  I want to try it since I Royal Purpled
the rest of the van.  Couldn't hurt to try it then back to the Delo 15/40. I
have 186K(only 20K with me driving). If I change the filter every 3K and
refill every 5-6K, I agree the carbon footprint will go down with the
synthetic and the recycle cost, also. Based on previous posts regarding the
quality of the Mobil 1 filter and the cut-aways of others, seems like a
small risk, eh?
