Gerry, et. al Volks,
Mobil-One is the -cheapest- and least performing of all synthetic
blends. I have stated ad-nauseum, ad-infinitum on this list: Purchase
HIGH QUALITY synthetic oils, for example: Royal Purple, Red Line, Bel
Ray, Castrol Syntec. You will pay more for these oils, much more. Pay it
or stick to Tyrannasaurus Oil!
I and others have been exhaustive on this point and I will just point
anyone who cares to the archives for data: Bottom Line: You get what you
pay for, period. Mobil One is the least of the greatest and I moved from
it years ago due to problems such as seal leaking.
