Oil opinions
Here's an easy one for you guys. I use Mobil Clean Drive 10w-30 on my '77 c-10 that has about 80,000 original miles on it. Would changing to the Mobil clean drive Blend 'high mileage' stuff do any good, or am I just as well off with the regular stuff? It doesn't leak, but it does burn a little. I check it religiously.

Pretty much the only difference in the oils would that the high milage stuff would have some gasket swellers to keep stuff from leaking. Mobil 1 is a good oil. When I changed from regular valvoline to high mileage valvoline It did stop some oil burning, but it might just be my imagination. I think the high mileage stuff is mostly a marketing gimick. I would keep going with the clean drive - less expensive than high mileage.
