I started using Valvoline synthetic in my pickup. At around 6,000 miles into a change the engine started to get a little shudder like a miss at idle, change the oil and it went away. Also had a little lifter tick that went away on fresh oil. A couple months ago I switched to M1, the tick is much quieter, I'm only about 2,000 miles into the experiment so we'll see. -Curt

Synthetic is good but is Mobil1 really better than other sort of house brand synthetic oils? I recall someone on here recently suggesting that buying synthetic oil from a farm supply place was just as good as brand name oil. Any thoughts on that? I have been using Mobil1 in my truck and my wife's car and I need to change both and need to buy some oil. What should I buy?
