Engine oil Shell or PENNZOIL

PENNZOIL Engine oil

For the money, Pennzoil can't be beat, and I say that considering you can usually get it from Napa or Amazon around $7/qt. Idemitsu is also great, but hovers around $8 or $9/qt on Amazon or Napa.

Pros: great value for money
Cons: Amsoil better protection

PENNZOIL Engine oil

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W 30 gas to liquid base oil construct $26 for 5 quarts at Walmart or Amazon and is perfect for EJFA engines. People running 0w20 in these fbs and fas and ejs are just destroying their engine. I run the 5W30 pencil Ultra Platinum. I would get the mow tool but it's just really not worth it. I changed my oil every 2,000 mi and the gas to liquid technology. Making your base stock backwards from natural gas gives perfect polymeric structure and their additive package. It's just smoking!  I can get three 5 quart bottles for for $75 on subscribe and save from Amazon delivered plus tax. I think the 5W30s The Sweet spot. Unless you're tracking it then I'd go up to the 0w 40 in the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. But you have to realize that the same company that makes the base stock oil out of natural gas also owns the additive package company and they run a a 48 Esther ad pack in this and it's just tremendous oil. If I had higher mileage I'd be running. Probably Valvoline 5W30 restore and protect it. Cleans the ringlands, wrist pins, valve train etc. But since I changed my oil so frequently, I always stay with the pennsville Ultra Platinum. I don't think you can be eat it at $0.16 per ounce it's just bulletproof to thermal oxidation.

Pros: perfect polymeric structure
Mileage: 2000 km

Shell Engine oil

Rotella T6 15W-40. I’ve used it in all my bikes, cars, lawnmower. It’s the best option if you own lots of motors. Just change it frequently.

Pros: best option, own lots motors

Shell Engine oil

First oil change after filling with T-6 on my 2002 Saab 9-3 (that didn't have a kit on it) I bought with 130k miles on it was really black, almost a bit sludgy. Next few oil changes quickly got better as the detergent broke down sludge in the top end and cleaned the motor up.

Pros: detergent broke down sludge
Cons: oil was sludgy
Vehicle: Saab
Mileage: 130000 km

I think factory recommendation is Rotella but honestly you can go with any high quality oil. I have used Rotella, Castrol, and Valvoline synthetics in my 500 and I honestly don’t think it matters.

Pros: high quality oil
Cons: doesn’t think it matters

Rating 1.0

I used Valvoline synthetic in my first SHO, and I am using Mobile 1 in my latest SHO. I tried Pennzoil in my 5.0 (Windsor) and all the lifters started clattering.

Cons: lifters started clattering
