what difference does it make; it's only freaking motor oil for crying out loud, geesh ...

(sorry, I'm sick and tired of people fixating on such a pointless topic)

 

I use castrol as well.

 

May I suggest peanut oil(unless your allergic to peanuts of course),as it won't break-down under higher temps.

 

I use Castrol. Pretty much because classic rotaries, like the Le Rhone, used castor oil, and Castrol was the closest thing I could find that had the correct API rating.

I run Mobil 1 synthetic, preferably becuz i havent had a problem with it plus i get it free.........from work...........but prior i was runnin castrol syntec............good stuff as well.

 

you guys with castrol, are you using their dino, or their "full synthetic"?

 

castrol t-rex here

 

I use Mazola for my needs. Yep it smells good as well !

Oh wait, u said engine oil hmm

I tried RP, Castrol Syntec, Quakers State Advance Q

I like RP.

 

to much history channel for you..

Dino.

Like I said before, I wanted castor oil because that's what the classic rotaries use, and Castrol was the closest thing to that spelling. I prefer dino because I have this mental image of giving a big slug of castor oil to a dinosaur, then standing back a safe distance and watching.

Sounds like a personal problem

 

If it helps, castrol's full synthetic isn't really what you might think it is

 

pennzoil platinum this time around...

 

^ RP for me.
