For all of us in the Dakpak who use Mobil1.
Quote:
One time when I was racing, I began to feel a lot of heat on
my left leg. At the white flag (meaning one lap left in the race)
I noticed the heat was much worse. After it felt like a hole was
burning through my leg, I looked down to see the dipstick was
missing. I stopped as quick as I could and found a stick to stop
up the hole where the oil had been leaking out. The stick soon
fell out.
I figured I'd better slow down just a bit. I had a big lead
over second and third-place racers, but they soon began to gain
on me. So I picked up the speed and finished the race. Luckily,
the quad stayed together and I WON the race.
When I got the machine home, I found out that the case was
completely dry.I took the engine apart,fully expecting to need a new piston and
some cylinder work. But the engine was completely fine. I was using Mobil1 synthetic
in that race." End of Quote (pg.14 ATVSport magazine)
