I am using Mobil 1 Formula M 5w 40 motor oil purchased from Napa. There is a QR code scanner on the label to confirm authenticity. It is the same mineral content at the 5w 50 as tested here. https://youtu.be/i3pNHfxKAJc |

Is Mobil 1 5W30 Synthetic High Mileage Oil still an option?

Re: Plan. B if I can't get Amsoil Z-Rod?
Turns out that Mobil 1 5w30 Synthetic High mileage has 900 ppm of zinc. A little low, but adding a few ounces of ZDDP should put me into range.
The Mobil 1 info can be found here: https://www.mobil.com/lubricants/-/m...EC97C2C1C5491F
