Haven't used it in 20/50, but used other grades in the past. <shrug> Oil is oil to me. The Valvoline Racing stuff smelled bad though. Really rank.

i've never used to valvoline, and everybody says hell no to using valvoline, but why-if its changed religiously its got to be just like everything else. i run castrol 10w40 and let it rip

Don't "have" to, but it's still a good idea to. I personally don't buy that 6 moth, 7000 mile, whatever, longer than usual time periods.
