Subject:What Oil to Use on Startup?
From:Paul Rogers

Howdy, I'm preparing for starting up, hopefully, my new to me motor. According to the seller it has around 900 miles on it. But it's been sitting around for a while. I know it's been over 1 year minimum. Long term I'm going to use Mobil 1 but I'm thinking for the initial start up using something less spendy in the event something doesn't go as planned. I'd really hate to waste $30 plus $$ of the Mobil 1. Any thoughts on this matter would be gratefully appreciated. Wish me luck.

I don't think it matters but the motor is a 2.1
