Re: [ST] Please, Not an Oil Thread

Rich,
My understanding is that they no longer make Mobil1 red cap 15W-50
(the only Mobil1 that was not energy conserving). The highest
viscosity in regular Mobil1 is now 10W-30. I plan to use gold cap
(extended performance) 15W-50 for my next oil change. A friend told me
that the 15W-50 is not energy conserving but I do not know about the
10W-40.
