Oil?
I'm curious as to what brand/type of oil everyone runs in their cart.
For my personal cart, I use Castrol SYNTEC. For my business, I use Castrol GTX. I would use SYNTEC in my customer's carts also, but I just can't justify paying so much for it. They don't even know the difference, so explaining doesn't help. When I first started business, I used Valvoline. Which is good oil, but is $$$. Then I got some Coastal which is cheaper, but people like seeing a name-brand going into their cart. Just post what you use in your cart please. And Matt, Jergens isn't motor oil. |

Re: Oil?
I just bought a gallon of GTX right before I posted this. I wanted to see what everyone said for next time.
I priced Mobil1, but I don't think I can justify the cost of it for my business. I'd have to raise my prices to keep up with that. I may convert to FormulaShell since a family member of mine works for Shell... and I could get a discount. |

Re: Oil?
I always use Castrol GTX for all my engines-mowers, cars, trucks, 4 wheelers
Not sure how to tell whats the best, but never had a engine fail using it. |
