Castrol Syntec, which would come out light brown, and never consumed any

down a quart each time. I switched back to Castrol. That's what I get
for trying to save 50 cents and support a Nascar Sponsor. >>
Now, I've used Mobil 1 from about 3,000 miles on up with my last few cars
with no problems. I guess the wives' tale about moving to synthetic on a
higher mileage engine being bad, is a true tale.
