LOL WUT ?

I have fed my 5VZ Mobil 1 since day 1 in 1998, and 184,000 miles later it still exceeds EPA (22mpg, epa is 19) and I have super clean exhaust, no knock sensor activity on 87 octane. every 8000-10,000 miles new Mobil 1 and new filter.

My cams have almost undetectable wear. My engine has no sludge I repeat no sludge at all, whatsoever. I beat the crap out of it and it is still more powerful than a brand new motor. original pistons original rings original valves original cams.

I don't know where you get your Mobil 1 info but it sounds like you are slamming it for some unknown reason. try 11 years of serious engine beatdowns, and after seeing virtually no wear then tell me Mobil 1 is not all it is cracked up to be. (virtually no wear means everything measurable and made of metal and uses oil lubrication is within spec by a large factor)
