Delvac 1 is preferable to the others if you can find it, at least for
diesels. I use Mobile 1 15W50 for summer use, 5W50 most of the time
for winter, I have been doing about four oil changes a year lately with
the milage I'm accumulating. 6000 mile intervals work fine with a
filter each change so far -- car runs like a top at 234,000 miles and
starts instantly, doesn't use more than a quart in 6000 miles.
