Which oil do you use
There are many to choose from, so which one do you use and why?
As always, if the one you use is not listed post it and I will amend the poll to include it.

Re: Which oil do you use
Mobil 1, but I'm thinking of switching to Redline due to this zinc thing.

Re: Which oil do you use
I've heard something about "earth friendly" oil grades that can cause some MAJOR problems. Certain viscosity combinations in all brands have a "star" type rating instead of the normal circle. Anyone know anything about this?
