Mobil 1 is very good.
You can switch between mineral (regular) oil and Synthetic (Mobil 1) or different types of the same (i.e. Quaker State Synthetic & Mobile 1) with out any problems.
It takes a few oil changes to clean out deposits that mineral oil leaves.
The longer mineral oil is used in an engine the longer it takes to clean out.

I have heared that Redline oil is the choice of alot of racers. Something about useing a lighter oil so you have less resistance and help the engine make more power. They also make trainsmission fluid that is supposed to do the same. Any of you guys know about this?

So, if a person purchased his CL with more than 40,000 miles and had no knowledge of the brand or type oil used previously, would switching to Mobil 1 be helpful in the long run, or would it cause new problems? Just wondering.
