actually NP work just fine... I've been using Ultra 20w50 for a year now with no problems... used to use Castrol GTX until I started noticing a heavy petroleum smell after a spirited drive... i figure it had to be the oil cause since the switch I do not smell it anymore. I know men think local ting no good but I'm very satisfied with it. NP also has Ultratec which is their synthetic line.

once you change your oil and filter on time, its unlikely you'll ever get any oil related issues with any modern mineral or synthetic oil.

from every thread on 2nr of this nature, it just seems to be personal preference as there is never any concrete reason to choose one over the other.

As said above, mobile is good and $65ish a quart.

I have used QS mineral, Mobile and RP and honestly i have to say i noticed little if any difference. i just continue to use RP cuz the powerseller delivers it to me and its frickin PURPLE...

there is no recommended brand of oil for use in a bj and grade depends on owners preference and climate 20w-50 and 10w-30 are good for our climate but if you regularly drive spiritedly you could try 0w-30 at yuh own risk

I've been using Redline 20W-50 with K&N Oil filters and had excellent results.
I started using it on a 'brand' hype, but having removed the head recently, the internals look spotless and compression still good for my mileage.
