I am not one to buy store brand oil like the stuff they sell in auto parts stores.
Have seen way to much of what some small independent bottlers mix in the final product.
Same thing with diesel fuel. You could not even guess what you may be getting out of some no name pumps.
But I have been thinking about trying some Napa labeled oil since it is bottled by a name brand oil company.
1) What do you guys think of Napa labeled oil products?
While we are on the subject of oil.......
I was looking at some Mercon V oil today.
Then I noticed some of it was a DEX/MERC blend even in some name brand bottles.
2) So why would they make a blend.
Isn't that like mixing 90w and 10w and calling it 50w?
Think I will keep looking till I find a pure Mercon V oil.
Am also looking at changing my rear-end oil.
Since this oil gets changed so seldom I was thinking about using a full synthetic gear oil.
3) What do you guys think about using a full synthetic gear oil in the rear end.
Thanks
