Question! is the Rotella better for the ole 88 Honda Civic family car. Mine
only has 441,000 miles on it and would like to get it to last longer? Does
the catalyic Converter make the difference?

There has been much discussion on the Corvette forums about the lack of
Zink and ZDDP in new automobile oils.  A lot of the engine builders and
engineers are recommending  Rotella or Delo for the pre catalytic converter
cars. I myself have changed to  Rotella T synthetic 20W40 in both my 67 427
Corvette and my  65 Tiger  289 HiPo.             -Bill  B9470661
