I have a 96 Neon with 250K on the odometer. Always ran Valvoline 30 or 20w50, still has the original catalytic convertor. Same for my 1998 4.0 Cherokee. Maybe if you have an oil burner?
That's not diesel oil is it?

I`ve posted this before, but back when we were racing the hemi , we used 3-4 diff kinds of oil/whatever our ''small time'' sponsers would furnish, the hemi did not give a dam what brand it was, and not particular to 30/40 or 50 weight racing oil Just didn`t matter < as long as there was plenty of good flow! Oils have changed a bunch since then, but as long as its reasonably clean and plenty of it , it still don`t make a hell of a lot of diff. I have used even Walmart tech oils in my 505 and a few higher priced brands, dodn`t seem to make a piddlers dam !I have a 96 Neon with 250K on the odometer.

The new tite tolerance engines need a liter weight maybe , but the brand still don't make a diff., as long as its decent oil.
i find it just as hard talking to and getting through to old heads that are still stuck in 19 freaking 70.
no need to run rotella in a 90 jeep motor. can ya run it? sure. is there a need to? no.
RRR by the way, MY crap hand always fills up first for me.Absolutely it is. I see old guys every single day wanting to run 10/40 and 20/50 in their newer Ford, Chevy and Dodge trucks and cars. Most of them I am able to steer in the right direction, but a few are just die hard morons. You're dead right. It's not just the younger generation.......but they do contribute. lol

I'm trying to tell a young mechanic about T4 Rotella and to put it in an older truck engine at the shop a 1990 4.0 Jeep six cylinder..Nope that's for diesels only..No way should I be putting that in any gas engine. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01LH7L0D0/?tag=joeychgo-20
Is it good or am I the idiot in this argument?
I have run into the same problem with young guys, which is why older men are more fun to hang out with. LOL
Ummm.. Amzoil, Royal Purple, and Mobil one have been around for how long?
My Dad was using Mobil 1 before the first Volare' hit the street.
