Mobil1 one left me with no neutral

Seriously... switched over to repsol and it did wonders. Do different motors and trannies just react differently to different oils? Or may I have just had some bad luck.

Oooo.

New Desmo unveiled this morning.

yes and no. within modern performance oils of the same viscosity and type it shouldn't really matter.

now if i switch my ancient honda over to synthetic of the same weight it might cause some issues and require me to go up in weight (viscosity)
