NOS Mobil 1 SJ-rated oil --> additives settling? - 02/22/10 04:44 PM
I've got enough unopened quarts 10-year old Mobil 1 15w50 "red cap" SJ oil on hand for two oil changes. I'm thinking the only issue w/ using it is if the additive package has fallen out of suspension. Mobil says their oils have a shelf life of five years, but this stuff is twice that old.
Anyone have experience w/ Mobil 1 experiencing additive settlement after long periods of storage? If it has, would it be as simple as shaking up the bottles to re-mix it before using it? FWIW, this would be used in a 600 HP street / strip engine.
