I'd consider doing a back-to-back test in that situation... 2000 Mystique LS Duratec 2.5L MTX

They have forums for oils as well as forums for used oil analysis and virgin oil analysis. The oil analysis forums includes postings of many subscribers that post their reports from Blackstone and others. www.bobistheoilguy.com Jim Johnson 98 SVT 03 Escape Limited
