heh, I had Mobil 1 in my truck for >500 miles when I decided to pull off the
valve cover to check what the clicking noise was, when my dad came in to
tell me remove the heads... and get prices on new ones/porting old ones...
that oil had become black that fast... (also had ~1 quart of antifreeze in
it too)
