RE: Engine Oil - 1/17/2008 8:50:38 PM    biglg Posts: 2166 Joined: 9/3/2006 Status: offline Hate to interrupt!  I know this information has been talked about before.  However, what weight synthetic is everyone running?  I am in Missouri and we have cold winters and average hot summers.  Shark, what do you recommend.  I know there is a thread that talks about this but I cant find it.  By the way, I can add that I remember reading where a lot of people use synthetics in their tahoe and there are no issues when using it!  I am going to put some in my Tahoe this weekend if I can figure out what weight.  MIght as well ask rather than look, how may quarts on the 5.3L E-85?  Thanks.

ZX said that Mobil 1 improves about everything advertised.  HP, Torque, fuel effeciency, etc.  It is recommended that 5w-30 be used, and 6 quarts is the amount! Where does everyone buy their Mobil 1, i guess what is the cheapest place?  (in reply to biglg) Post #: 8

Best price I've found around here is at Sam's. _____________________________ GM perf. exh, GM CAI, Superchips, Lund step tubes, billet grill, LED tails, Lloyd mats, rear console, GM flaps, silver calipers, black bow ties, tint (in reply to biglg) Post #: 9
