god i dunno but im about to switch to mobil one. i didnt do the last oil change. it just seemed low. i had a few problems so i was checking. the first one was i had that spout that came off the valve cover like 4 inches up with the cap on it, and that snapped off, so i just screwed the oil cap on the the valve cover, and thesecond was when i dropped the tranny for the clutch, i noticed the rear of the oil pan was homemade silicone gasket all the way and there was some oil on it. so i had to remede that before i got oil on a new clutch. just making sure my oil pressure was ok. thanks

if you are that worried do a compression test dry/wet as long as you are over 110 for all and they are within 25 of each other id say ur good..
