Re: V-6 Reliability

Hi fellow listers-

In response to Carl DeSousa's query concerning V-6 reliability.  I 
have a 1993 100CSQW with V-6 and automatic transmission.  Have 51K 
miles with no problems.  At my last oil change I switched to Mobil 1 
before the cold weather set in.  So far I have seen no ill effects.  
There is a little lifter noise at startup and lasts for about 20 
seconds.  I am not sure if this is any different behavior than with 
regular oil.
