Mobil1 Rebate, Cheap oil Options

[Intubator]

Hey Folks, I mostly lurk here as I don't own a 914 anymore (at the moment) but I just wanted to pass on some information re a great deal on Mobil 1 oils for those here that use them.
Walmart has it on sale right now for $20 per five quart jug (online) and Mobil 1 is concurrently running a rebate program where you get $12 off each five quart jug you buy, up to four. Walmart is not listed in the retailers list but they are included per their rebate representative who I spoke with today. Also, Walmart will match their online price with in store price as well. Comes out to $1.60/qt...

For the early Porsche guys this is pure poison to our engines.would never run it,personally seen huge oil leaks with it,was never an option with the older engines technology besides.
High quality 20/50 high zinc no question for 914 and 911 engines,the 4 cyl is not really cheap to overhaul and the 911 version even less why "F" around .
Certainly a great buy for those with suitable engines however.
Cheers.

Not to be argumentative here (heaven forbid) but I have been using Mobil1 15/50 in my 2.2 liter type IV engine for 14 years and it hasn't leaked a drop. My garage floor has always been totally dry. Of course YMMV (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
