You are going to drive the Oil Fanatics in to fits of apoplexy by even suggesting that anything but the latest or FACTORY recommended type/brand/weight etc., is anything.....but acceptable.
I have recommended using Common Sense....the same thing Ben Franklin recommended to people 200+ years ago....it was mostly ignored then, and is totally ignored now.
You have Freudian analcompulsives that quake in fear of what might happen to the engine or transmission if the Lube God is offended. They"ll refer to their copy of the Hold Writ (owners manual) and seek to find the exact same lubricant called for.......even if the manual is 50-60 years old.....simply because; THAT IS WHAT THE BOOKS SAYS! And such logic is nothing but stupidity. There...I said it, people who commit such acts are STUPID.
Who died and made me god of intelligent decisions? Nobody had to die or appoint me god of anything.......just dig your head out of your exhaust orifice and use it to rationalize the answer.
All national commercially branded motor oils and lubricants are of high quality and many of them are produced in the same refinery"s.

If the bucket or can or barrel says: "Compatible with" or "Replaces" then that is just what the hell it means......not "Inferior to" or "Guaranteed Destruction".
There are people who will always believe Hitler was right and likewise, there are people who will always buy into the Oil Hysteria myth....it"s nice to know that a few folks are smarter than that.
