[QUOTE="adnoc, post: 108091, member: 2105"] definitely you can use any brand of engine oil and change it regularly while protecting the engine.... the bottomline for the engine to work without seizing and scarring the crankshaft bearings and other internal parts is as long as the engine is filled to the recommended level with lubricant, then it shouldn't fail.... however, please bear in mind that all lubricants comes with different additives package and viscosity grades to meet with the current demands of engine performances... as the engine technology improves, so does the engine oil... but the lubricant is like the lifeline for the engine... similar to blood for our body... fortunately we have livers to help us cleanse and filter out all toxins and unwanted materials.... but the engine requires the filters and the engine oil to be changed occasionally..... now, if one were to donate blood, do you think that the national blood bank will just simply accept blood without testing? and if one needs blood transfusion, would one require the best or any blood will do? fortunately, we have the medical people to seave out the not so good and the ok blood initially.... whatever brands are okie, and if u want to be sure of the most suitable and quality brand, then go for one which is license with the API logo and listed in the [url]www.eolcs.api.org[/url] similarly, it's like getting blood from the national blood bank and not from some "ah kow blood bank".... cheers...
