Hagen Brothers farms,Goodrich ND
30 years experience running Mobil 1.

Put it in any age engine, the last one I changed over had 170,000 miles and was 12 years old. No new leaks and oil consumption went to 1/2 what it was with mineral oil. It's an old 92 454, still makes 3,000 miles per qt with 0W-30 mobil 1. If you have been using detergent mineral oil, then synthetic will not loosen up any new crud.
