Dmsee Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 You should send it to Penzoil and ask for a new engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin H Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I have seen many engines pulled apart that have used Pennzoil in it their whole life and its like a weird sand size, gritty crap throughout it. I have no idea why it does that. Wal Mart House brand is probably better or on the same level as Pennzoil. The stuff will never see any of my cars.Why was it in that car?

854TGA+ Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Man, I have been using that crap for years in my garden tractor. I was given a case for free, no wonder! Nothing but Mobile1 for the tractor from now on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
